Following a two-month long investigation, Winnipeg police have announced the arrest of eight people alleged to be part of a gang that sells narcotics.

Police said the operation targeted a street gang known as the B-Side.

On December 10, police executed a search warrant at a home in the 600-block of McKenzie Street and made the arrests.

All eight suspects face charges related to trafficking in cocaine.

Four remain in custody and four others were released on promises to appear.
