Convicted killer and gang member arrested again

A man with ties to the FOB killers gang is back in jail.

26-year-old Vuthy Kong was found guilty of a 2002 stabbing death that has sparked years of violence between rival gangs in Calgary.

Wednesday night, police witnesses a suspect trafficking drugs and when they pulled over the vehicle he was in, officers found 0.8 grams of crack cocaine, five oxycodone pills, $691 cash and five cell phones.

That led to a search warrant being issued on a Radcliffe home in the southeast where cocaine, 44.4 grams of cannabis oil, 19.4 grams of MDMA, 2.5 grams of marijuana, scales, and packaging were found.

Police says some of the drugs were packaged in containers used to smuggle drugs into jails and Acting Staff Sergeant Mark Hatchette says Kong was an alleged supplier to drug houses in Calgary including the one the was shut down in May.

Kong has been charged with possession of oxycodone for the purpose of trafficking, possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking, possession of MDMA for the purpose of trafficking, possession of cannabis oil for the purpose of trafficking, possession of property obtained by crime, and two counts of possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking.
