It was part of a two month investigation by the Organized Crime Unit
which targeted members of the Zig Zag Crew, a support club of the
Hell’s Angels.

“The impact of this investigation reaches far beyond the criminal
justice system,” Division Cmdr. Max Waddell said. “As long as there is
demand for illicit drugs, the supply chain will remain.”

Police arrested five people, including brothers Joel and Nicholas
Bruneau.

Officers said high ranking members of the Zig Zag Crew are now behind
bars and the arrests will have a significant impact.

“I’ve worked on the Zig Zag Crew and the outlaw biker area for
sometime,” Detective Steve Mitchell said. “I know this particular
arrest, with who is in custody, will effect (the gang).”

Police said the seizure was sizable and significant and included:

cash in excess of $150,000.00
7 pounds of marijuana
100 grams of marijuana Resin
29 fentanyl blotter tabs
3.2 grams of fentanyl powder
bullet proof vest
brass knuckles
12 Rounds of .357 magnum ammunition
