A month’s long investigation by Saskatchewan RCMP has led to one arrest and the seizure of several kilograms of narcotics in the village of Hodgeville.
Sask. RCMP’s Trafficking Response Team (STRT) as well as Swift Current General Investigation Section (GIS) began an investigation in January of 2023 into the “inter-provincial drug trafficking activities” of 41-year-old Keenan Leith Ireland.
Based on investigative findings, RCMP believed that Ireland was actively trafficking drugs into southern Saskatchewan from Alberta and discovered his residence in the village of Hodgeville.
On March 23, police executed a search warrant on a property on the 100 block of 2nd Avenue East.
Ireland was found at the residence and was arrested without incident.
In the seizure, a large sum of cash, 2.5 kilograms of methamphetamine, one kilogram of fentanyl, 0.5 kilogram of cocaine and between 40-50 small vials of cannabis resin were found.
A second seizure on the same day was executed at a home on the 100 block of Grey Street in Swift Current, RCMP explained.
