A 33-year-old Coquitlam man has been charged with six offences related to possession of prohibited weapons, allegedly importing prohibited weapons and drug trafficking.
The Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit, which focuses on gang activity in BC, says the charges stem from an investigation that began in January of last year.
A statement from police says a search of a home and separate storage locker led to the discovery of four conducted energy weapons, often called Tasers, drugs, cash and police uniforms.
The suspect is also charged with an attempt to import a firearm suppressor, a prohibited weapon better known as a silencer, and he returns to court in Port Coquitlam next Wednesday.
