Lethbridge Drug House Shut Down By LPS And SCAN - May 4, 2022 - Micah Quinn
A problem property in Lethbridge has now been shut down for 90 days due to drug activity. The Safer Community and Neighbourhoods, or SCAN unit, of the Alberta Sheriffs obtained a court order to shut down the house at 124 - 19 St N in Lethbridge. A fence has been erected and the house has been boarded up. The SCAN Unit and Lethbridge Police Service say they have been investigating the house since March after there were complaints from community members about drug activity.
Between October of 2019 and February of 2021 the Lethbridge Police Service responded to 33 incidents at that property. An LPS search warrant in June 2020 turned up a small amount of fentanyl, along with drug paraphernalia and several pieces of stolen identification.
“Alberta’s Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods Act gives law enforcement another tool for fighting crime by targeting properties associated with illegal activity. Community safety orders can help break the cycle of crime and allow law-abiding Albertans to take back their neighbourhoods and rest easier," says Alberta Justice Minister and Solicitor General, Tyler Shandro.
A release from the province went on to say the community safety order, obtained in Court of Queen’s Bench, took effect on May 4 and bars people from the property until the closure period ends on Aug. 2. The property in this case is also the subject of a court-ordered sale unrelated to the investigation. The SCAN unit will continue to monitor the premises until the community safety order expires on April 26, 2023, or until the property is sold. Since its inception in 2008, Alberta’s SCAN unit has investigated almost 7,000 problem properties and issued nearly 100 community safety orders.
