A 34-year-old Kitchener man was arrested Monday with what police say was a loaded handgun, a large amount of cash, and more than $15,000 worth of fentanyl and methamphetamine.

Police say the man was nabbed on Stirling Avenue South in Kitchener as a result of an ongoing investigation.

Two Kitchener properties on Courtland Ave. East and Fairview Ave. were subsequently searched and police say more weapons and about $47,000 in fentanyl, methamphetamine, marijuana and psilocybin were seized.

Police say their investigation is ongoing and they expect more arrests and charges.
