The Kelowna RCMP set up surveillance with the help of the South East District Emergency Response Team.

Two men and a woman were arrested and a seven-year-old child located inside the home was brought under the care of the Ministry of Child and Family Development.

A 24-year-old West Kelowna woman was questioned and released. A 37-year-old West Kelowna man is expected to appear in court Oct. 13 on possible drug and firearms related charges.

A 32-year-old West Kelowna man, Tyson Ashleigh Bone, remains in custody and has been charged with multiple charges including careless storage of a firearm, possession of stolen property and possession of a controlled substance for the purposes of trafficking.
