A southern Ontario police force has dealt a blow to a drug‑trafficking and firearms network operating throughout the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), after a bust resulted in the seizure of 24 handguns and large quantities of cocaine and opioids.
Halton Regional Police confiscated the guns and drugs as part of Project Cyprus, a six-month long investigation into a “sophisticated and well-organized” drug trafficking network operating throughout Toronto as well as the Halton, York, and Durham regions, investigators announced at a May 19 press conference.
