Abbotsford police release name of man stopped with $1 million in cocaine: "Marc Edward Johnson, 28, has been charged with possession for the purposes of trafficking.
'The connections between Johnson and a Lower Mainland gang have been identified by police but the name of that group will not be released at this time to protect the integrity of other current investigations,' Abbotsford police Const. Ian MacDonald said.
Johnson was pulled over on Highway 1 near Whatcom Road about 2:45 p.m. by Abbotsford's gang suppression unit, with the help of the drug and dog squads and the Municipal Integrated Emergency Response Team.
MacDonald said a search of the vehicle turned up about 20 kilos of cocaine with a street value of over a million.
The volume of cocaine suggests a mid-size to large crime group would have been involved in the transaction.
Johnson has no criminal record and is not known to police."
