Hell's Angels have been fingered by local police as playing a major role in the city's drug problem.

Now the OPP have revealed Project SILKSTONE, which began as a high-level Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau investigation targeting multiple criminal groups involved in trafficking illegal drugs and guns along the Highway 401 corridor between the Greater Toronto Area, through the Belleville/Bay of Quinte Region and Montréal, Québec.

The investigation also revealed drug trafficking activities to and from the United States. 

The OPP has also just released a series of videos related to gangs and crime.
