Toronto drug dealers: Omar Ghuman, 18, Termaine Clarke, 27, Jihaad Al-Kisadi, 29, Jawad Sami, 21, Autumn Johnny, 36, Kwesi Armoo, 25, Jason Ramessar, 25, Javonte Reid, 21, and Handel Hippolyte, 20


Toronto drug dealers travelling north in search of profit found out that crime does not necessary pay in Sault Ste. Marie.

It cost these nine men — eight from Toronto and one from Kitchener — their cash proceeds, illegal product, weapons and freedom.

And, of course, their fancy Mercedes sports car obtained through ill gotten gains.

Turns out it can get pretty cold in the north — for alleged gangsters.

“My message to this group is straight forward,” Chief Hugh Stevenson of the Sault Ste. Marie Police Wednesday.

“If you come to our city to sell drugs, be aware we will know when you are here. We will identify you. We will arrest you. We will seize your vehicles and property associated to the drug industry under the criminal code. And we will bring you before the courts.”

Welcome to the wild, wild north, where these alleged criminals learned they don’t do politically-correct, virtue-signalling, social worker blame-it-on-root-causes justice.

Finding this out the hard way over the past week were Omar Ghuman, 18, Termaine Clarke, 27, Jihaad Al-Kisadi, 29, Jawad Sami, 21, Autumn Johnny, 36, Kwesi Armoo, 25, Jason Ramessar, 25, Javonte Reid, 21, and Handel Hippolyte, 20.

The list of charges — not yet tested in court — are too long to list.

But inside this police investigation, as the Sault Star also reported Tuesday, were three 9mm guns seized along with nearly 200 grams of Fentanyl, 20.7 grams of Crystal Meth, 146 grams of Cocaine and a cache of pills including Oxycontin and Adderall.

The value of the drugs were nearly $115,000. Police also located $81,765 in cash and two cars worth more than $100,000.

Needless to say driving, around in white Mercedes in Sault Ste. Marie draws attention — especially when the licence plate had a Toronto address.

That was the police’s first clue. But there were more.

“People here care about their community,” said Stevenson.

“They keep track of who’s here and they will tell is if something does not seem right.”

As Councillor Matthew Shoemaker told The Sun, over the past month, things did not seem right.

“Sault Police noticed an increase of Southern Ontario drug dealers attending our community and attempting to sell and distribute a variety of drugs including cocaine, meth and opioids fentanyl and carfentanil,” confirmed Stevenson.

With his top-flight detective units, which have lots of experience dealing with trafficking thanks to the border with the United States and being on the Trans Canada Highway, went to work.

“We were worried about our residents here,” said Stevenson.

“These aren’t pharmacists cutting these drugs — they are criminals who don’t are about what’s in it. We want people to understand you get one bad batch and you are dead.”

Rather than wait for that — or for someone to be shot — Sault Police busted up this recipe for disaster quickly.

“There are only three entrances here so we will find you,” said Stevenson.

The pushers didn’t know what hit them.

“Sault Ste. Marie is a safe community,” said Stevenson.

“The people here, together with the police and our partners, will continue to remove this scourge and poison from our streets in order to best protect our friends, family and neighbours.”

As for the next criminal enterprise who want to franchise north, be warned it’s not a soft-on-crime place.

“They were naive to think they could come here to deal their drugs,” said the chief, adding he wants “to make sure all gangs to the south think twice about coming back. Don’t even bother.”

Unless, courtesy of Sault Ste. Marie police, they want to end up in jail plus have their guns, money and cars confiscated.
