Kelowna cops seize guns and drugs

Kelowna RCMP officers have seized illegal drugs, weapons and suspected stolen property from a residence in a Rutland neighbourhood.

Officers from the RCMP’s Community Safety Unit executed a search warrant Wednesday at a property located on the 400 block of Rutland Road South.

The warrant was related to an active criminal investigation into suspected drug trafficking, police said.

“During their search of the home, police seized quantities of suspected illicit drugs including suspected fentanyl and cocaine from inside the residence,” Const. Solana Paré of the Kelowna RCMP said. “Our officers seized a variety of weapons including imitation firearms and a large amount of cash, as well as several bicycles believed to be recovered stolen property.”

Six people were taken into custody during the search and were later released without charge, pending further investigation.
