## Resource

Winnipeg police shut down a major downtown drug operation on Elgin Avenue, making three arrests and seizing a loaded, tampered handgun, a machete, bear spray, and over 500 grams of cocaine—all ready for distribution. The bust involved a 30-year-old man, a 26-year-old woman, and a 69-year-old man, all facing serious charges; the younger two remain in custody while the older man was released with a future court date. Multiple police units executed the raid, signaling a strong push to crack down on downtown drug activity. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
