Subhead:A major drug bust at Cobourg’s 310 Division Street shelter and a nearby residence once again confirms what residents have been warning for years: neighbourhood safety around the shelter is collapsing.#
A staggering quantity of deadly hard drugs seized from Cobourg’s controversial shelter at 310 Division Street and a nearby residence is renewing serious questions about safety, oversight, and the breakdown of public order in the neighbourhood.
Police executed simultaneous Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) search warrants on November 13 and 14 at both a Margaret Street residence and a unit inside the shelter, as part of what investigators say is an ongoing probe into entrenched drug trafficking in the area.
