At a press conference the following morning, police proudly displayed their prize, which included 29 individually packaged bricks of cocaine, as well as a briefcase overflowing with Canadian and American cash. "Today is truly another significant day for the Halton Regional Police Service and in particular for our Drug and Morality Bureau," said Deputy Chief Andrew Fletcher. "These kinds of arrests are significant in that not only does it reduce the supply of drugs that are available to our streets, but as police we know these kinds of arrests also help reduce other street level crimes that we're seeing in our community related to the drug trade."
