Members of the Prince George RCMP's Crime Reduction Team and Downtown Enforcement Unit executed a search warrant on a suspected drug house in the 1200 block of Burden Street around 6:45 p.m. Dec. 8.

The investigation resulted in a 47-year-old man and a youth under the age of 18 being taken into custody. Even while the officers were searching the home, a number of people came to the residence looking to purchase drugs.

The youth was later released without charge, but the 47 year old was released with promise to appear in court at a later date.
