According to the supplied report, St. Thomas Police began the months-long investigation in March after officers identified people suspected of trafficking fentanyl and other controlled substances to people at heightened risk of drug-related harm in the community. The investigation was conducted with help from the Criminal Intelligence Service Ontario.
Police said six people were arrested between March and August and collectively charged with 64 offences. The supplied report says no details were shared about who was arrested, and it does not identify the accused people.
Search warrants at several locations in St. Thomas reportedly led to the seizure of an estimated $32,185 worth of drugs. Police listed 194.3 grams of fentanyl, 54.4 grams of cocaine, 22.6 grams of methamphetamine, 16.8 grams of crack cocaine, and 487 prescription tablets including Oxycodone, Dilaudid, morphine, and other suspected controlled substances.
The reported seizure also included $4,016.28 in Canadian cash, one conducted-energy weapon, one crossbow, and ammunition. The supplied image is credited to St. Thomas Police and shows the crossbow and packaged items displayed as seized evidence.
St. Thomas Police Chief Marc Roskamp reportedly thanked Criminal Intelligence Service Ontario for its support and said the partnership strengthened local efforts to protect vulnerable community members and enhance public safety.
The supplied report does not provide the names of the six people arrested, the individual charges, or court outcomes. All arrests and charges remain allegations unless proven in court.
