West Coast Police have seized drugs and items related to the sale and supply of illicit drugs following a series of search warrants across Westport today. 

Operation Boston was set up to target the sale and supply of illicit drugs in the Westport community. The operation resulted in the seizure of an amount of cannabis, methamphetamine, and other evidential material. 

A night of dangerous driving across Auckland’s motorway network ended in custody for a car full of fleeing youths. 

Just before 8pm last night, a motorways unit observed a Toyota Corolla allegedly exceeding the speed limit along State Highway 16 near St Lukes. 

Senior Sergeant Bronwyn Matthews, Auckland City East, says the vehicle was signalled to stop, but the driver ignored instruction and continued heading southbound. 

“Due to the nature of driving, the vehicle was not pursued.”
