A total of 13 people were arrested and a string of addresses across the region raided starting Thursday morning after a six-month probe into gun and drug trafficking in Ottawa, police revealed Friday.
Three others are still wanted by police in connection with Project Sabotage, a “covert and undercover” operation led by the guns and gangs unit. Officers seized two dozen guns of all kinds – including both revolvers and semi-automatic pistols – ammunition, cocaine, fentanyl patches, a drug press and cash.
One of the guns was fitted with a bump stock – an attachment that allows a semi-automatic rifle to fire faster. A bump-stock equipped long gun wa sone of the weapons used by a shooter in the Las Vegas massacre earlier this year.
City police executed 14 search warrants at addresses across the region with the help of Gatineau police, Sûreté du Québec and the RCMP. More than 300 gun and drug charges were laid.
“Project Sabotage addresses illegal gun and drug trafficking through enforcement and suppression,” Staff-Sgt. Tim Hodgins of the guns and gangs unit said in a news release. “Enforcement projects like Sabotage are a vital tool for helping to reduce gun trafficking and reduce gun violence in our city.”
Weapons seized in Project Sabotage
Chief Charles Bordeleau said that tackling gun violence is a top priority.
“This project will have a significant impact on gang and illicit trafficking operations and we will continue with these efforts to ensure the safety of the public,” he said.
Ottawa men Nick Menard, 25, Ozair Rehman, 26, and Adel Al-Enzi, 24, have been charged but have yet to be arrested, police said.
Making court appearances Thursday were Mishaal Alshammiry, 29, Denis Carriere, 42, and Miles Kempffer-Hossack, 20, all of Gatineau, and Ottawa residents Fahim Sayeed, 22, Anthony Prest-Guido, 23, Akada Bruce, 40, Abdulazziz Al-Enzi, 30, Nima Saberi, 28, Tarentino Dacosta, 24, Dominik Montigiraud, 25, and Osman Kassar, 28.
Two other people were arrested and released on promises to appear in court. They were not named because they have yet to make a court appearance, police said.
