Durham Regional Police have searched two area homes, finding more than $1.9 million in marijuana and $150,000 in cash in the culmination of an operation that took months.
Police received complaints from residents regarding drugs being trafficked to minors in the area, and launched "Project Sorento" which began this past September.
According to CTV News, one of the residences is in Bowmanville and the other nearby in Mississauga.
Vuong Tran, 52, of Thornhill, Dung Nguyen, 43, of Mississauga, Ten-Thi Le, 47, of Mississauga Calvin Hoang, 27, of Mississauga, and an unnamed 17-year-old female of Mississauga are facing a wide range of charges in connection with the execution of the two search warrants. Among these are charges of possession of the proceeds of crime, possession of cannabis for the purpose of selling, selling cannabis to an adult and illicit possession of cannabis.
Anybody who may have any more information that would be of assistance to police is asked to call Crime Stoppers anonymously, or to get in touch with Sgt. Thomson ad 888-759-1520.
