According to the police, the motel room attendant found the illegal drugs under a bed mattress and reported this to her supervisor, who then informed the QCPD through the city’s helpline.
The District Drug Enforcement Unit (DDEU) immediately responded and seized the illegal drugs, which were turned over to the DDEU’s Chemistry Section for analysis.
Authorities are reviewing CCTV footage in the area to identify who left behind the illegal drugs.
