Police on Vancouver Island say they have seized illicit drugs and guns as part of an investigation targeting mid-level drug trafficking in the Cowichan Valley.
R-C-M-P say searches at three homes in the Duncan area and one in Sooke turned up three kilograms of suspected fentanyl, 3.5 kilograms of methamphetamine and cocaine, as well as six handguns, including two that were made using a 3-D printer.
Seven people were arrested, and police say a 38-year-old man from the Fraser Valley has been charged with four counts of trafficking in a controlled substance.
R-C-M-P say they will also recommend drug and gun-related charges against a man from the Greater Victoria area and a woman from the Cowichan area, both in their 30s, as a result of the probe that began last November.
