Multiple police services were involved with a drug bust in London. Among the group were members of the Oxford-Brant Community Street Crime Unit.

LONDON - Members of the OPP Elgin-Middlesex Community Street Crime Unit have arrested two people following a drug investigation in the City of London.

On August 23, 2023 at approximately 4:30 p.m., CSCU members, with the assistance of the London Police Service Emergency Response Unit and Canine Unit executed a search warrant on a vehicle in a parking lot at a Hamilton Road address and took one person into custody.

Shortly after, Elgin-Middlesex and Oxford-Brant CSCU members, along with the LPS ERU executed a second warrant at a residence on Sasha Crescent in London.

Police arrested one individual and seized approximately two kilograms of suspected cocaine, scales, packaging material, 9mm ammunition, cell phones and a large quantity of currency. The estimated street value of seized illicit drugs and offence-related property is $110,000. Photos of the seized items are included in this media release.

Joshua REYES, 26-years-old of London is charged with Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking. Brooklyn CLEMENTS-CARD, 27-years-old of London is charged with Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking.

Both individuals attended the Ontario Court of Justice in London for a bail hearing on August 24, 2023. The investigation remains ongoing.

"This investigation was yet again another successful collaborative effort with the common goal of disrupting the drugs present in our communities." - Acting D/Inspector Charles Lorway, OPP West Region Crime Prevention and Investigations Manager.
