The search of the property in the area of 93 Street and 111 Avenue yielded a variety of drugs, cash and paraphernalia, including nearly a kilogram of methamphetamine and quantities of Dilaudid, oxycodone and Ritalin. Scales, packaging, mobile phones and $8,615 in cash were also recovered.

“It’s a large seizure of methamphetamine. You usually don’t see this much at one time,” Insp. Ed McIsaac said Thursday.
