$500,000 drugs raid: 200 plants seized

By LUKE VOOGT

Bellarine Police and Geelong Divisional Response Unit found about $500,000 worth of cannabis plants during a raid at a Clifton Springs house this week.
Police recovered more than 200 plants in a drug warrant executed at a house in Kalimna Court, on Thursday 28 July.
Bellarine Police Senior Sergeant Shane Madigan said the find was an excellent result.
“We now have a substantial amount of cannabis that will never see the streets of Bellarine and Geelong,” he said.
“We encourage all members of the community to continue to ‘Dob in A Dealer’ and report any information to Crimestoppers.”
Police are investigating but have made no arrests at this stage.
