Police say rap video leads to arrests, drug seizures at Calgary property

CALGARY – A rap video has helped Calgary police in a drug and weapons bust.

Investigators say they found a cache of drugs and weapons inside a southwest home on Tuesday.

Police seized an Airsoft Uzi and an Airsoft Thompson sub-machine gun, $8,000 in cash, crack cocaine, and marijuana.

Martin Schiavetti with the drug and vice unit says one of the accused was spotted in a video posted online.

The officer says the video shows activity that he says places the public at risk.

Selwyn Marcus Caine, who is 30, and 24-year-old Djambou Teddy Wemini are scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.
