note: - ■ vW-- ■ POT-GROWING NEIGHBOUR BUSTED Family terrorized LANGLEY - On Monday February 13, at about 11 a.m, two men invaded a home in the 6100 block of 240 Street, and held a woman and her two children at gunpoint while they searched for drugs. They left immediately after realizing they were in the wrong home. The victims woe left unharmed but very frightened. As police conducted enquiries in the area, they discovered the very strong stench of marijuana coming from a home at 6205-240 Street. A search warrant was obtained and police searched the residence, seizing eight fully grown marijuana plants, a complete hydroponic growing operation and about two pounds of marijuana bud. Approximate street value of the seizure is $12,000. Forty-two year old William Duncan MacGougan is charged with cultivation of marijuana and possession of a narcotic for tlie purpose of trafficking. He appeared in Langley provincial court on Tuesday morning. Meanwhile police are still looking for the two men involved in the home invasion. They are described as 17 to 20 years of age, between 5'6" and 5'9" tall, with medium builds and light brown hak. Both were wearing ball caps and baggy pants. One was wearing a black Los Angeles Raiders jacket. Anyone with information about this crime is asked to call Langley RCMP at 532-3200 or CrimeStoppers at 669-TIPS(8477). Native carver Rick Harry checks his measurements while roughing-in a grizzly bear shape in a cedar log. The finished totem pole will be erected at Betty Gilbert Elementary School. Harry will be working on the totem every Wednesday in front of the school. He hopes to have the project finished in about a month. The log was donated by Mill and Timber Products of Surrey. Betty Gilbert Elementary received a $5,000 grant from Native Studies-Social Studies for grade 4. Harry will also carve a welcome figure for Aldergrove Community Secondary, when this totem is finished. -Tim Attwood Photo. Staff bonus plan under fire LANGLEY - Township coun. M…
