On March 11, 2026, the Oxford Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) conducted an investigation in Tillsonburg, Ontario, that led to a visible increase in police presence in the downtown area. The operation was part of a targeted investigation managed by the Community Street Crimes Unit.
Officers arrested Christopher Landry, a 38-year-old Tillsonburg man, at a parking garage on Broadway at approximately 1:20 p.m. that day. The arrest was carried out without incident by both specialized units and front-line officers.
Landry faces charges for the possession of a Schedule I substance for the purpose of trafficking—methamphetamine. Police confirmed that the situation was specific to the investigation and there was no ongoing threat to the safety of the general public.
The accused has since been released from custody and is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Woodstock on June 11, 2026. Local residents are encouraged to report any suspicious activity to the authorities to help keep the community safe.
