A drug trafficking investigation by Windsor police resulted in the seizure of suspected crystal meth and prohibited weapons — including the Japanese martial arts weapon known as nunchaku.

Members of the tactical team and the drugs and guns (DIGS) unit raided a residence in the 800 block of Langlois Avenue around 8:40 p.m. Wednesday.

Police arrested the male suspect who had been the focus of the investigation.

A search of the premises turned up 0.2 grams of suspected crystal methamphetamine and three 90 millilitre bottles of suspected methadone.

Also found: two pellet guns, a butterfly knife, and a pair of nunchaku.

Section 84(1) of the Criminal Code deals with prohibited weapons in Canada — including any knife “that has a blade that opens automatically by gravity or centrifugal force.”

The government further defines prohibited weapons to include “nunchaku” — “being hard non-flexible sticks, clubs, pipes, or rods linked by length or lengths of rope cord, wire or chain, and any similar instrument or device.”

The same part of the regulations also prohibits “shuriken” (ninja throwing stars), “manriki gusari” (ninja chain weapons), and spiked or bladed finger rings.

Kevin Lauzon, 34, of Windsor, faces two counts of possession of a controlled substance and two counts of possession of a prohibited weapon.

He’s also been charged with eight counts of breaching recognizance and 16 counts of breaching a prohibition order.
