A man was arrested after police seized drugs, cash, a taser and air rifle from a Ridgehaven address this morning.
About 10am on Friday 8 December, detectives from Serious and Organised Crime Branch, with the assistance of SAPOL’s Dog Operations Unit (Police Dog Winter and handler), seized approximately 500 grams of suspected methamphetamine, mobile phones, a taser, an air rifle and cash from a Ridgehaven home.
The occupant, a 30-year-old man, was arrested and charged with trafficking in a commercial quantity of a controlled drug and possessing a firearm without a licence.
