8 people are facing trafficking charges after a lengthy investigation in Courtenay.
Comox Valley R-C-M-P say two units collaborated to specifically target drug traffickers in Courtenay's downtown.
Seven men and one woman, all from Courtenay, were charged with trafficking various drugs including fentanyl.
The Mounties say their investigation started in February after an increased number of calls from concerned citizens and neighbouring businesses over the drug activity in the Cliffe Avenue area of the city.
