Strike force arrests one and seizes cash, drugs and vehicle in operation

Victoria police say they arrested a man last week who they believe has connections to Lower Mainland organized crime groups, and has been the subject of a drug-trafficking investigation since late July.

Police say they stopped a vehicle in the 4700 block of Sooke Road, arrested the man and seized cash, drugs and the car.

Police say they seized nearly 350 grams of cocaine, more than 260 grams of methamphetamine, nearly 100 grams of fentanyl and nearly 22,000 dollars in cash.

They say the street value of these drugs is estimated to be more than 60,000 dollars.
