The Valley Integrated Street Crime Enforcement Unit has charged a man with drug and firearms offences.

According to the RCMP, last week investigators executed a search warrant at a home in Waterville.

Police arrested a 33-year-old man and seized cocaine, four rifles, a shotgun, ammunition, cash, scales and a cellular phone.

He was released on conditions and will appear in Kentville Provincial Court in December.
