VERNON — Police have seized an estimated $30,000 worth of drugs after an arrest in Vernon — and a search of a home in Lake Country.

A 34 year old Vernon woman arrested last week was found with drugs packaged for street sale and a large quantity of cash.

That led to a search warrant being used by the Targeted Policing Unit on a condo complex in the 3100 block of Beaver Lake Road in Lake Country, resulting in large quantities of  heroin/fentanyl mix, cocaine, methamphetamine and cash being seized.

Police say the heroin/fentanyl mix was packaged in 0.1 and 0.2 gram weights for a total of 523 street level portions. The crack cocaine was packaged in 0.2 and 0.4 gram weights for a total of 457 street level portions. The methamphetamine was packaged in 0.4 gram weights for a total of 82 street level portions.
