Three men and two women are under arrest after members of Peel Region’s Street Crime Gang Unit seized a quantity of drugs, ammunition and a handgun earlier this week.
Police executed search warrants at two locations, one on Webb Drive in Mississauga and one on Lakeshore Road West in Toronto. Investigators seized a quantity of drugs, including heroin, oxycodone and marijuana, as well as a 9 mm firearm, a magazine loaded with ammunition, and several additional rounds of ammunition.
Dennis Tanieve, 22, and Pamela Filochowski, 21 — both from Brampton — and Michael Jamal Bennett, 23, of Mississauga, all face a number of drug and weapons charges including possession for the purpose of trafficking and unauthorized possession of a firearm.
Lukasz Obrzut, 32, of Mississauga faces charges of possession of a controlled substance and breach probation while Jeanette Katarzyna Magiera, 41, of Mississauga faces a charge of possession for the purpose of trafficking.
Tanieve, Obrzut, Filochowski and Bennett have already appeared for a bail hearing in Brampton, while Magiera is scheduled to appear in court in August to answer to the charges.
