Vancouver police conduct drug search warrant at Yaletown condo

VANCOUVER -- Vancouver police detectives executed a search warrant at a Yaletown condo Sunday.

The warrant conducted at a suite at 1255 Seymour St. was in relation to a drug investigation, a police spokeswoman said. Officers were supported by Vancouver Fire and Rescue Services and a hazmat team because of the possibility that fentanyl – a powerful synthetic opioid – could be present.

“Vancouver Fire Rescue Services as well as a Hazmat team are onsite so the search can be processed in a safe manner for police and the public,” Cst. Tania Visitin said in a statement to CTV News.
