London police have arrested a second man accused of operating a large drug lab in the city's south end last week.
On Friday afternoon, investigators announced the arrest of 46-year-old Felice R. Ferri, 46, of London. Ferri was previously wanted on a warrant for his alleged involvement of a cannabis extraction lab at a home located at 467 Commissioners Road East.
Last Tuesday, April 4, police were called about a disturbance at the Commissioners Road East home near Huntington Drive. While responding, officers noted strange equipment and materials later determined to be part of a drug lab operation.
Over $8-million in cannabis products, other illegal drugs and weapons were subsequently seized from the home, where a police presence was seen for nearly a week while the lab was dismantled.
Ferri and his co-accused, 30-year-old Donovan Wendt are jointly charged with several charges including possession of drugs for the purpose of trafficking, possession of cannabis to distribute, possession for the purpose of selling, and altering cannabis with an organic solvent.
The investigation is ongoing.
Both men are scheduled for future court appearances
