Toronto cops say 173 guns were seized in Canada and the U.S. as part of a cross-border firearms trafficking investigation.
Project Moneypenny began in March 2022 by Toronto police’s guns and gangs unit. It resulted in a large number of firearms seized, 42 people arrested, and 422 criminal charges laid. Fentanyl, carfentanil and cocaine and $184k cash was also seized. Cops seized about 1.5 kilos of fentanyl/carfentanil with a street value of $300k, and 1.8 kilos of cocaine. 87 handguns were wrapped in bubble wrap and then in holiday paper in an attempt to avoid detection by border security. |
Seized firearms originated in Arizona, Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Ohio, and Texas. |
