Police in Prince George, B.C., are thanking a witness who helped them recover a large amount of drugs and cash.
RCMP say a resident reported finding some "large black cases" buried along a trail in the College Heights neighbourhood of the north-central B.C. city on Monday.
Officers searched the area and found three cases, which contained about $5,000 in cash and over 400 grams of illicit drugs, according to Cpl. Jennifer Cooper.
The discovery was made near the 6800-block of Fairmont Crescent in a green belt that backs onto a residential neighbourhood.
The investigation is ongoing and some details are being withheld to help protect the identity of the person who reported the items, Cooper said.
