The fentanyl seizure in the largest of its kind by the team and is ALERT's third-largest fentanyl seizure to date. The ALERT team seized 2,000 fentanyl pills during the bust. In a record-setting drug bust, Edmonton's ALERT team has seized 2,000 fentanyl pills and 60 kilograms of marijuana. The 2,000 fentanyl pills were seized from a condominium on Hanna Crescent, in the south-end neighbourhood of Haddow, and are believed to have originated in B.C. The vehicle was intercepted on June 3, leading officers to search three Edmonton homes, in the Rutherford, Terwillegar, and Lewis Estates neighbourhoods.
