The Brantford Police Service Drug and Firearm Enforcement Unit, with the assistance of the BPS Emergency Response Team and K-9 Unit, conducted two search warrants at residences located on Henry Street and Charing Cross Street in Brantford on Tuesday, October 29, 2024.
A large quantity of Canadian Currency, drug manufacturing tools and materials were located along with the following illicit drugs:
- Approximately 3,104.4 grams of suspected fentanyl
- Approximately 320.2 grams of suspected methamphetamine

This seizure of fentanyl represents the largest amount to date obtained as a result of a Brantford Police Service investigation. The estimated street value of the drugs seized totals $692,675 when trafficked at the drug user level.
As a result of this investigation, three residents of Brantford, a 37-year-old man, a 24-year-old female and a 26-year-old male, were arrested and each stand charged with four counts of Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking.
