A large-scale Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) investigation into alleged drug trafficking activities has resulted in 13 individuals facing a combined total of 74 criminal charges following a series of coordinated searches across eastern and central Ontario.
The investigation targeted alleged drug trafficking activity in the Bancroft and Trenton areas and forms part of ongoing efforts by police to combat the distribution of illicit substances in Ontario communities.
Fentanyl and other illegal drugs continue to be a significant public safety concern due to their connection to overdose incidents and other drug-related harms. Police say they remain committed to identifying and disrupting individuals involved in the production, distribution, and trafficking of illicit drugs.
On May 27th, 2026, officers executed search warrants at multiple locations in Trenton, Belleville, Bancroft, and Toronto.
The operation involved assistance from several specialized OPP units as well as members of the Belleville Police Service.
As a result of the searches, investigators seized quantities of suspected fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine, and opioid pills.
