Approximately $27,000 worth of drugs were seized, along with several weapons, and four people were arrested as the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT) concluded a short-term drug trafficking investigation in Red Deer.

On September 19, ALERT’s Red Deer organized crime and gang team, with help from Red Deer RCMP, executed a search warrant at a residence in Glendale Park Estates.

Once inside, police seized 340 grams of methamphetamine, 22 grams of fentanyl powder, various types of ammunition, and numerous knives and other weapons.

“Getting these drugs and weapons out of the hands of suspected criminals will have an impact on the overall safety of the Red Deer community,” said Insp. Sean Boser, ALERT regional teams.

Dallas Griffin, 31, was charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking (x2), possession of proceeds of crime, and breach of recognizance (x3).
