Keen-eyed officers with Nanaimo's street crime unit are being credited with a bust that police say has taken an estimated 40,000 dollars worth of drugs off the street.
A statement from the Nanaimo detachment says the officers spotted a driver they knew did not have a valid licence.
Once he was pulled over, Mounties say officers quickly found the crystal meth, crack cocaine, other drugs, cash, cellphones, a digital scale and several replica firearms.
In all, police say three people in the vehicle were linked to the drug trade and all have been released while charges are considered.
