The Customs Anti Narcotics Unit (CANU) yesterday said that almost 20 pounds of coke was seized from a Campbellville home. Two teens are also in custody following the raid on Sunday.
According to CANU, its ranks descended on the property at 25 Delph Avenue, Campbellville, on Sunday where during a search they found a cooking gas cylinder that had several suspicious packages in it.
The cylinder seemed to have been adjusted to look normal.
The nine rectangular-shaped objects weighed over nine kilograms (about 20 pounds) and were subsequently tested and confirmed to be cocaine.
CANU said that two 17-year-old who were at the home at the time were arrested and are currently assisting with investigations.
