Street Crew Unit executes pair of search warrants on Porter Avenue

May 1, 2026 - City of Prince George, British Columbia

From: Prince George RCMP

File #2026-12100

On Tuesday, April 28, 2026, Prince George RCMP’s Street Crew Unit executed a pair of Controlled Drugs and Substances Act search warrants at two residences on the 1300-block of Porter Avenue.

The North District Emergency Response

Team attended the location with two Tactical Armoured Vehicles to assist with safely entering the residences, as the risk to police officers during this operation was determined to be high.

“Distraction devices were utilized to assist in emptying the residences of their occupants, which did gain the attention of

neighbours in the surrounding homes. However, this is a standard procedure in this type of scenario, and one that ensures the safety of those in the home and attending police,” states Corporal Jennifer Cooper, Media Relations Officer with Prince George RCMP.

Once in the home, investigators located approximately $500 in cash, one prohibited firearm and several ounces of suspected illicit drugs, which were all seized as part of the ongoing investigation.

Two people, who are known to police, were arrested and subsequently released pending laboratory analysis of the substances seized and future charge approval by the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.

This investigation remains ongoing.

"A mother’s love is the heartbeat of the home."

TAURUS (Apr. 21-May 20)

Mercury, the planet of thought and communication has moved into your sign where it will remain until 17th May. This is a good time to think about where you find yourself in life right now or what you think is best for you personally. You need to include with this, making allowances for anything that could come up unexpectedly.

LEO (July 23-August 22)

You need to be mindful of your commitments to mid May, especially when it comes to other people. Something from the past with someone else may come up that can require some serious thinking on your part, especially when it comes to what you could be responsible for. Getting a clear idea of the future could be difficult.

SCORPIO (Oct.23-Nov21)

The Full Moon has just occurred in your sign. This could put you in the light in some way, which can represent some sort of recognition. Decisions involving someone else and how this would be structured into your life might need to be considered up to mid May. Their ideas for the future might cause some issues with your regular routines

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20)

With the next 7 years ahead of you having the potential for big changes, you might now start to realise, to mid May, that there are things you wanted in the future that may not fit the direction life may seem to be offering. Finances could be involved with this at the present time, especially when it comes to what could be cut back.

VIRGO (August 23-Sept.22)

The actions somebody else takes in relation to what they expect could get you thinking about your own priorities, especially if you feel as though you need to find more time for yourself. Seriously think about any decisions, from now to mid May that you would be wise to make when it comes to future directions to head in.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.22-Dec.21)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.18)

It might be time to think about getting back to usual routines in some way up to mid May, though putting something new in place could also be considered, especially if you are not that interested in handling as much as you have been on a regular basis. Any discussions on this could be difficult to initiate but don’t let that stop you

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

The time may now be upon you where any freedom you have been able to experience since June will be curtailed due to matters you need to become responsible for. This could encourage you to think about what now needs to become a greater priority, especially up to mid May, even if you are not impressed with the obligations attached.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct.22)

Too much could be expected of you, so think twice before taking on increased obligations. Someone else may not be that open, up to mid May with their ideas or any plans they want to make. What might have once been the case with what you were prepared to do may now have changed and you might need to let them know.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan.19)

Put your mind to properly organising anything you need to handle on a regular basis to mid May, especially if there is the need for some sort of communication with others, as you could be put under pressure. There can be things building up behind the scenes that you are unaware of so you need to be prepared for any surprises

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You can be rather definite in your own mind up to mid May when it comes to any decisions you want to make about something that needs to come to an end. For some, this could be connected to study or learning of some description. For others, being able to have more time to relax, which might involve less spending could be the case

When it comes to social activity or situations of pleasure and enjoyment, going down the path of simple will be best up to mid May. There is no need to overspend when it comes to these circumstances. It could be up to you to lead the way, as other people involved would probably prefer something more extravagant.

ARIES (March 21-April 20)

The time may be upon you when you need to take more notice of your finances or spending, particularly up to mid May. Something associated with home or family could come up that will require your attention which could also include having to take some sort of action. Involved in this could be some unplanned expense.
