Project Keystone: Dozen arrests + cocaine, fentanyl and cash

An investigation in the sleepy Township of Brock under project Keystone, led to multiple arrests and the seizure of 28 grams of cocaine, fentanyl and over $1,500.

In May, investigators with the North Division Community Resource Unit (CRU) began Project Keystone, an investigation into drug activity and trafficking in Brock. Officers determined that a significant amount of activity was occurring in and around a motel located on Osborne Street in Beaverton.

In late May, investigators executed a search warrant at the motel and took two suspects into custody. A quantity of drugs and drug paraphernalia was located and seized, police said.

CRU officers then began focused proactive patrols and traffic stops in the area, in addition to assisting front line officers with numerous priority drug related calls, leading to the seizure of 28 grams of cocaine, a quantity of fentanyl, and over $1,500 in Canadian currency.

As an overall result of Project Keystone from the beginning of June, 12 persons were arrested, 83 project related traffic stops were completed, 37 Provincial Offence Notices and Summons were issued, and 53 Compliance Checks were executed.

Anyone with information about this or similar incidents is asked to contact the North Division Community Resource Unit at 1-888-579-1520 ext. 1501.
