  • Delta property seized in drug bust

Delta police say a property valued at more than two-million-dollars has been seized in relation to a large-scale drug investigation.

Police say the residence in Delta was transferred to the Province of B-C after the Supreme Court deemed the home as "offence-related property."

The residence was originally seized as proceeds of crime by police.

Law enforcement officials say the investigation started in November 2020 and has resulted in criminal charges being recommended against multiple people.
