GENERAL COMMENTS ON LOCAL CRIMINAL AND DRUG ACTIVITIES:

During the month of April 14 people have been charged
with various offences under the Narcotic Control Act and this
mainly involved the use of hash, marihuana, and MDA. The drug
situation was much more improved, with a definite shortage of
heroin in the area, although we understand morphine was quite

readily available.

. During the month two separate groups that we were aware
Of have been quite active in offences involving the thefts of
televisions and stereo equipment, particularly aroung the new
apartments in the Conuitl-m arca. Investigatcens into the rash of
burglaries have resulted in two groups of youths being dealt with
and a total of approximately 40 burglaries cleared up. We had one
armed robbery during the month and that occurred at the 711 Store in
Coquitlam. Investigation to date has not resulted in the culprit
being apprehended but investigation is being continued. During the
month there were three bad incidents occurring involving huge congre-
gations of youths, one such incident took place in Port Moody wherein
assistance was given to that Force, and the two others occurred in the
Coquitlam area, During one such affray one of our members was
viciously assaulted, and in another approximately 13 persons were

arrested for several varied offences.
