Police raid uncovers illicit tobacco and vapes

Cobram CIU Detective Sergeant Marcus Boyd said the raid could have prevented over $100,000 in illegal sales from the shop.

“We executed a search warrant and as a result seized a substantial amount of illicit tobacco worth $44,940, including 6.3 kilograms of loose tobacco or chop chop, along with 335 vapes and an undisclosed amount of cash,” Det Sgt Boyd said.

Det Sgt Boyd said a 27-year-old St Albans man is being questioned by police and expects charges to follow.
