Police have seized a vintage car, cash, and weapons, and have charged a man with large scale drug supply after a three-month investigation in Newcastle.
Officers attended a home on Woodstock Street in Mayfield, and arrested a 21-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman on Monday morning.
Officers executed a search warrant at the property, where they seized more than $27,000 in cash, four motorcycles, a pair of knuckle dusters, cannabis, a hydraulic press, and a number of precursors believed to be used in the production of prohibited substances.
Two more search warrants were executed at storage facilities in Kotara and Raymond Terrace, where police seized a 1969 Ford Mustang and a jet ski, both believed to be the proceeds of crime.
The man was taken to Newcastle Police Station and charged, and refused bail to appear at Newcastle Local Court on Tuesday.
The woman was released pending further inquiries.
Investigations continue.
