Charges pending for 2 Abbotsford men after drug bust

Two Abbotsford men are facing drug-related charges after police seized crack, cocaine and heroin at a local residence.

Armed with a search warrant, Abbotsford police officers and members of the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team swooped in on the residence in the 2200-block of Bakerview Street Tuesday afternoon.

Five people connected to the residence were initially detained by police while the search resulted in a seizure of crack cocaine, powdered cocaine, heroin and cellular phones. The estimated street value of the drugs is about $2,000.

Police are recommending charges of possession for the purposes of trafficking against two Abbotsford men who are 26 and 31 years of age. Both men have extensive histories with police in numerous jurisdictions.

The investigation continues into the connections between these individuals and the organized crime group that was supplying and controlling the operation.
