Synthetic cannabis haul

A Police investigation that located a large quantity of psychoactive substances, including more than 10kg of synthetic cannabis, included a search warrant executed in Red Beach last week.

This operation follows search warrants in Rodney in early August, where 11kg of synthetic cannabis and 2kg of a substance used in its manufacture were found.

The nationwide investigation began in June after NZ Customs intercepted more than a kilo of the substances used in the manufacture of synthetic cannabis.

The investigation is ongoing and information can be provided anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
