Two men in custody after S.W. drug bust

Two men in their 20s face drug charges after police and the ALERT special forces unit found over two litres of what’s known as the date rape drug at a southwest condo.

After a weeks-long investigation, police used a warrant to search the condo in the 1800 block of 26th Avenue Southwest Friday.

They turned up with what’s being called a substantial amount of the date rape drug called GHB.

About two litres of the liquid drug was recovered, worth an estimated $20,000 on the street.

They also found some ecstasy, other drug paraphernalia and over $8,000 in cash.

Twenty-five-year-old Joshua Kemp and 22-year-old William Roy Young are charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and possession of ecstasy and proceeds of crime.

Kemp is already before the courts regarding a separate drug investigation dating back to 2009.
