EDMONTON A nearly six-month-long investigation by various law enforcement agencies in eastern Alberta have led to two arrests and kilograms worth of drugs seized. Mounties say approximately $80,000 in cash believed to be proceeds of crime, over seven kilograms of suspected drugs, two kilograms worth of suspected buffering agents, and a number of prohibited firearms were seized through three coordinated search warrants. According to police, the drugs seized amount to around 60,000 doses. RCMP say a drug investigation from September 2020 where a Myrnam, Alta., resident was allegedly trafficking methamphetamine in the St. Paul and Bonnyville region lead them to other drug operations in eastern Alberta.
