The Northwest Regional Drug Taskforce, a multi-agency drug investigation group, served search warrants at the homes of Bodie L. Gwinner, 2141 Mount Baker Highway, and Matthew Gwinner, 2613 Dakin St., in Bellingham. They also raided several rooms at the Whispering Firs Motel in Alger, finding a half-pound of methamphetamine, which has a street value of around $10,000.
Bellingham Police Lt. Rick Sucee said an estimated 15 arrests were made in connection with the operation, which centered on the two brothers’ properties and circle of friends.
Bodie Gwinner was arrested without incident and booked into Whatcom County Jail. Police are still searching for Matthew Gwinner, who was not home when officers served the search warrant. The names of the rest of the arrested suspects were unavailable Wednesday evening.
