Burnaby RCMP’s Drugs and Organized Crime Section (DOCS) have seized kilograms of suspected fentanyl and cocaine, as well as hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of vehicles and cash.

On March 22, 2025, Burnaby RCMP’s Drugs and Organized Crime Section (DOCS) executed a search warrant on a waterfront residence in West Vancouver after a 4-month long investigation into a dial a dope drug trafficking organization.

A man and a woman were arrested at the residence. Of particular concern for police was the presence of two children who were also living at the residence.

“Having children living in a residence with these types and amounts of drugs inevitably puts them in danger from these drugs as well as other elements that come from being in a criminal lifestyle,” said Sgt. Randy Mortensen with Burnaby RCMP’s DOCS.

Along with the suspected fentanyl and cocaine, Burnaby RCMP’s DOCS also seized over $40,000 in cash, two high-end vehicles, two Ducati motorcycles and two Sea-Doos.

“People involved in the distribution of these drugs are contributing to the staggering number of deaths over the past decade in this province,” Sgt. Mortensen added.

The investigation is ongoing.
