Five people are facing charges after police raided a home they say is connected to gangs.

Around 6 p.m. Monday night, RCMP and Calgary Police stormed into the home just south of the city in Heritage Point.

Once inside, they found homemade bombs, several guns, and body armour.

They also found drugs including cocaine and ecstasy.

Police say an 8-year-old child has been taken from the home and is now with a parent.

Five people have been charged.

Investigators believe they all have ties to organized crime and gangs in Calgary.

Police say the home will be seized as part of the Victims Restitution and Compensation Payment Act.
