On January 22, 2025 at approximately 11:45 a.m., the Kelowna RCMP’s Crime Reduction Unit executed a search warrant under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act at a supportive housing complex in the 2000-block of Agassiz Road. Two individuals have been taken into custody and the investigation remains ongoing.
A collaborative investigation with the John Howard Society assisted officers in identifying one particular unit within the complex where the occupants are alleged to be trafficking illicit drugs, says Inspector Jason Charney, Regional Operations Officer. We’ve heard the concerns of our community members and it’s important for us to not only address these concerns, but target those who are supplying potentially toxic drugs directly to a considerably vulnerable population group. Our goal is to disrupt and deter crime in our community, and rest assured these types of projects will continue, adds Inspector Jason Charney.
