Heroin haul

NORTH VANCOUVER RCMP have netted $370,000 worth
of heroin following a three-month investigation of a heroin:
trafficking organization in North Vancouver. ‘

Vancouver resident, Dow Ming Chow, 22. is chi arged
with six counts of trafficking heroin. Chow appeared in
North Vancouver provincial court on July 31. Judge Jerome
Paradis released Chow on $5,000 bail.

He faces additional charges, including one count of traf-
ficking speed and five counts of possessing the proceeds of
crime in connection with the case, said Spt. Rick Winslow,

case.’ Police say six heroin purchases totalling 462 grams of
the drug were made in the parking lots of local bars. ;
