Last year the RCMP took down 53 marijuana grow operations of all sizes, seizing enough marijuana plants to just about cover a football field.

Nearly 500 law enforcement personnel and other professionals from across Canada and the United States have come together over the last week to share techniques and experiences to address organized crime and serious crime issues throughout Manitoba and Canada.

Further to Project DIVIDE, a Canada wide warrant for arrest remains in effect for Zig Zag Crew member Raymond “Bruce” Brown.

The Manitoba Integrated Organized Crime Task Force (MIOCTF), along with over 300 police officers, made numerous arrests and conducted searches as part of a long-term investigation known as Project DIVIDE.
