Six people charged after drug and weapons bust in Kitchener

A major drug and weapons bust for Regional Police.

After searching a home on Victoria Street North and Hackberry Street in Kitchener earlier this week, they found $97,500 worth of illegal drugs.

This includes marijuana, cannabis resin, and THC edibles, including ice cream, brownies, rice krispie squares, cookies, gummies, glass candy, pancake mix, pop, tea, coffee sugar, chocolate, sour swirls, THC fruit drinks, caramel corn, nanaimo bars and lollipops.

Staff Sergeant Paul Lobsinger tells 570 News, the various forms of THC edibles are showing up more frequently in our region.

“It’s becoming more common, they are available, obviously they are illegal at this point but they are available and we are seeing more of it in the last couple of years.”
