Four suspects linked to alleged drug trafficking at the Calgary Stampede were arrested by Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams (ALERT) in late September.

ALERT says the four men had their homes and vehicles searched in the Auburn Bay and Eau Claire areas on Sept. 22.

An investigation occurred after police say the men allegedly sold cocaine at the Calgary Stampede.

Officers seized 338 grams of cocaine worth $33,000 and $14,000 in cash.

The men are 50-year-old Geoffrey Scott, 38-year-old Wade Lieu, 32-year-old Mark Hua, and 42-year-old Huy Nhan. Scott is from Okotoks, while the rest are from Calgary.

Anyone that suspects drug or gang activity in their community is asked to call local police or leave a tip anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
