Authorities Raid Kahnawake and Seize Drugs, Grenade Launchers

5/7/2008 1:44:28 PM

The Canadian media is reporting a massive police raid at three different Mohawk reserves in Quebec Wednesday morning netted $2.5 million in cash and a large firearms cache, including three grenade launchers. The raids involved three Mohawk reserves:

•Kahnawake, south of Montreal;
•Kanesatake, just west of Montreal and most famous for being the site of the 1990 Oka crisis; and
•Akwesasne, which straddles Ontario, Quebec and New York State.

29 people whom police allege were part of an international drug ring were arrested. Police allege that a drug ring was producing and exporting marijuana on the reserves, to be distributed mostly to the United States. Kahnawake is about a 75-minute drive from the U.S. border, and Akwesasne straddles it, though Kahnawake is believed to be the center of the operation.
