An officer with the detachment’s special investigations team saw a man known to be prohibited from driving parking and getting out of a truck
A traffic stop of a suspected prohibited driver resulted in a major weapons and drug bust in Nanaimo last month, Nanaimo RCMP say.
It started when an officer with the detachment’s special investigations team saw a man who was known to be prohibited from driving parking and getting out of a truck on June 13, police said. The man was initially arrested for breaching conditions of a bail order, but in a “pat-down search,” the officer found a bottle of pills believed to be illicit prescription drugs, said RCMP.A search yielded a loaded 12-gauge shotgun, a replica firearm, thousands of dollars in cash, several ounces of fentanyl and hundreds of pills suspected to be illicit prescription opiates.
