Both the RNC and RCMP are on the scene, and it appears as though a battering ram has been used to pull the front door off a house on the street.
Area residents are identifying the residence in question as a “trap house.”
Drones are also being used in the operation, and officers have their weapons drawn.
VOCM News will have more information as it becomes available.
