Members of the Integrated Gang Task Force were at a Pacific Avenue home in White Rock Thursday afternoon.
But White Rock RCMP Const. Janelle Shoihet said, due to safety concerns for those involved, she could share little information, including exactly what brought the team to the seaside town.
“All I can tell you is the IGTF was in town,” she said.
The community, she added, is “absolutely” safe.
“It was totally an isolated thing, I can assure you of that.”
The officers caught the attention of area residents around 1 p.m. May 24. The home that was targeted is located just east of the White Rock RCMP detachment.
One woman who lives nearby and called Peace Arch News Friday afternoon described the incident as a “takedown.” The officers wore blue uniforms and carried “bigger guns,” she said.
Shoihet said no arrests were made, and that further information would be released to the public “as soon as it is practical to do so.”
