A 30-year-old man from Calgary wanted on dozens of outstanding warrants was arrested and now faces 32 additional charges.

Alexander Corbett, 30, was arrested after a two-month investigation into drug trafficking that included searches of two homes in Calgary — one in the 11800 block of Lake Fraser Drive S.E. and the other in the 0 to 100 block of 24th Avenue S.E. where Corbett was found — as well as two vehicles.

The four searches led to the seizure of:

- Three loaded handguns

- $53,400 in cash

- Two kilograms of methamphetamine

- 700 grams of fentanyl

- 217 grams of cocaine

- 30 oxycodone pills

- Six grams of cocaine

CPS officials say the estimated street value of the drugs exceeds $340,000.

Sergeant Kurt Jacobs said, "We thank people for providing information that led to a successful drug trafficking and armed violence investigation in our city. Removing these drugs, weapons, and prohibited ammunition from our streets will prevent further harm in our community."

"If we want to address armed violence in our city, this is one way the local community can help."
