Ledbury-Banff Crips Taken Down in Calgary
Calgary investigators take down members off an Ottawa-based gang called the Ledbury-Banff Crips that has been moving west looking for business in the drug trade. More than 250 criminal charges have been laid following an investigation into gangs and drugs in Calgary that took nearly a year and led police to a drug network in Ottawa. After executing 25 warrants, police seized more than $200,000 worth of drugs and $40,000 in cash, along with 12 guns, Calgary police said in a news release Wednesday. Thirty-four people face a combined total of more than 250 charges.
