The Sooke RCMP say a local man is now being held in custody after he was arrested twice for drug and weapon offences in as many weeks.
Police say 34-year-old Sooke resident Ryan Storm was arrested on Jan. 14 after police executed a search warrant at a "fortified cabin" in the 6600-block of Sooke Road.
Mounties also found two kilograms of illegal drugs, including suspected cocaine, meth, heroin and fentanyl. Drug trafficking-related paraphernalia and other prohibited devices were also found at the site, RCMP say. Inside the home, police say they found a "significant number" of prohibited high-capacity firearms magazines, a large cache of ammunition, prohibited knives and conducted energy weapons.
"Mr. Storm remains in custody pending his next court appearance set for Feb. 28, 2023," said police in a release Thursday.
