A Lemon Tree Passage man has faced court after police located drugs, cash and a number of prohibited weapons during a vehicle search.
Just before 1 o’clock yesterday morning police stopped a Hyundai sedan in Tanilba Bay and searched the car after they became suspicious.
Officers allege they located a loaded pistol, a set of knuckle dusters and a knife, as well as a traffickable quantity of the drug ICE and $1800 cash.
A 38-year-old male passenger in the car was arrested by police and charged with Possess Unregistered Pistol; Supply Prohibited Drug; Deal in the Proceeds of Crime; Custody of a Prohibited Weapon; and Possess Knife in Public Place.
The man was refused bail to appear in court yesterday where he was remanded in custody until his next appearance at Raymond Terrace Local Court on May 6th.
The female driver of the car was released without charge.
