CHILLIWACK — Members of the RCMP Emergency Response Team responded to the 45400 block of Watson Road Friday afternoon to reportedly execute a search warrant at a home on the north side of the road.

According to residents and witnesses who live in the area, RCMP members converged on the home Friday afternoon around 2 p.m. and raided the home. Residents nearby reported hearing two loud bangs and sirens as officers reportedly had their weapons drawn. One witness said ERT members executed a search warrant at the residence.
