A former Vancouver Island fire captain may lose his truck after he was caught speeding in Williams Lake and police found four pounds of marijuana during a search of the vehicle.
Mounties found the pot in eight zip-lock plastic baggies inside a gym bag, which also contained a Saanich Firefighters T-shirt.
A fire captain at the time who is now retired, Frank Albert Wolff, 54, said he was on a hunting trip and was supposed to deliver the gym bag to an unknown person in Williams Lake. He didn't know the man's name.
He said the bag was given to him by an 18-year-old acquaintance living on Vancouver Island. Wolff refused to provide the teen's name.
The accused eventually pleaded guilty to possession for the purpose of trafficking and received a conditional discharge.
At the time of the seizure in 2005, Wolff was leasing the 2003 Dodge Ram truck, but he later purchased the truck.
B.C.'s Director of Civil Forfeiture applied to have the truck forfeited to the Crown, claiming the vehicle was an "instrument of unlawful activity."
