The Campbell River RCMP seized prescription pills, fentanyl, crack and two prohibited weapons in a drug raid at a Campbellton home.

Earlier this month, a 66-year-old woman and a 27-year-old man were arrested in connection to a drug bust at a home on Ebert Road in the Campbell River area.

The detachment’s Street Crimes Unit carried out the search on March 16 and seized $3000 in cash, 17 grams of crack cocaine, 4 grams of cocaine, 13 grams of fentanyl, 316 hydromorphone pills and several other prescription pills.

Police say two prohibited weapons and a replica firearm were also seized at the scene.

An image released by police showcases the contraband, which includes several knives, an extendable baton, bear spray, ammo, a pistol, and cash.

The two suspects have been released and are scheduled to attend court later this year, in June.

Police say the home was previously the scene of four suspected overdose deaths in 2017.
