TAYLOR, B.C. — The Fort St. John RCMP reportedly received information on Sunday about a possible drug house in the Village of Taylor.
Frontline officers entered a home under a Controlled Drug and Substances Act (CDSA) search warrant. A small amount of what is suspected to be methamphetamine was located and seized.
While searching, a handgun was also seen, according to police.
Officers obtained an additional Criminal Code search warrant for further firearms and seized a loaded handgun that appeared to have 3D-printed parts.
The release says the resident was arrested as he did not possess a possession/acquisition license.
The individual was later released on an undertaking with numerous conditions and a court date for October 2022.
