Grant arrest

No charges have been laid after a high-risk arrest in Port Coquitlam last week.

Coquitlam RCMP and members of the Emergency Response Team (ERT) entered a home in the 1500-block of Grant Street on the morning of Sept. 29.

Eight people were located inside the home and taken into custody, interviewed at the detachment and released.

A search of the home, described as a "problem residence," yielded drugs and stolen property, said Const. Jamie Phillipson, who added police are working with Port Coquitlam's bylaws staff to prevent re-occupation of the home.

No formal charges have been brought forward and the investigation is ongoing.
