Between March and July 2024, the Woodstock Integrated Enforcement Unit—comprising officers from the Woodstock Police Force, RCMP, and the Department of Justice and Public Safety—conducted an undercover investigation in Woodstock, NB, focusing on street-level drug dealers in the area.
This investigation resulted in the execution of two separate search warrants on a residence and a third on a vehicle. These searches led to the seizure of cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA, and approximately $20,000 in Canadian currency.
Four individuals are facing multiple drug-related and criminal charges. During the investigation, Woodstock IEU members located and arrested seven unrelated individuals who were wanted by police for other criminal offenses and/or outstanding arrest warrants.
The Woodstock IEU was assisted in this investigation by the Saint John and Fredericton IEUs, as well as the Woodstock Police Force Street Crime Unit and patrol officers.
The public also plays an important role in helping to reduce, prevent and solve crime. Anyone with information about the illegal possession or trafficking of drugs in our community is asked to contact Woodstock Police Force at 1-506-325-4601.
