A 49-year-old man is facing numerous charges after Halton police executed a search warrant at a house in Burlington on Wednesday, Feb. 12.

Three weeks ago, officers initiated an investigation into the activities at a residence in the Plains Road East and Brant Street area after receiving a tip from a member of the public, said Det. Sgt. Paul Foley of the Halton police Drug and Human Trafficking Unit.

On Wednesday, at around 7 p.m., police executed a Controlled Drug and Substances Act search warrant at that residence and seized about 5.5 grams of fentanyl, 82 tablets of Clonazepam, 473 ml of Codeine, 500 ml of GHB and 1 gram of methamphetamine.

“Considering the opioids crisis we are experiencing right now, we are very appreciative of the public providing this information,” said Foley.

“If we can work in collaboration with the public we will have greater success.”

Eric Law, 49, of Burlington has been charged with four counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking in relation to the fentanyl, GHB, Clonazepam and Codeine.

He also faces one charge of possession in relation to the methamphetamine and one charge of breaching probation.

Police are asking anyone with information to contact the Drug and Human Trafficking Unit at 905-825-4747 ext. 5331 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
