A joint police operation targeting outlaw motorcycle gang activity in southern NSW has seen police seize drugs and close down a club house linked to the Black Uhlans.<\/p>\n
Albury Local Area Command and the Gangs Squad\u2019s Strike Force Raptor, assisted by Police Rescue, the Dog Unit and Traffic & Highway Patrol Command conducted the operation yesterday in South Albury.<\/p>\n
About 6pm (Friday 6 May 2016), a property linked to the Black Uhlan OMCG was searched by virtue of a warrant under the Restricted Premises Act and contravening the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act.<\/p>\n
Twenty club members were present at the time of executing the warrant.<\/p>\n
All twenty were searched and four issued with Field Court Attendance Notices for drug and liquor offences and will appear before court at a later date.<\/p>\n
Officers allegedly located a small amount of amphetamine on a 55-year-old club associate and a 31-year-old club member.<\/p>\n
A 55-year-old man was issued with a Field Court Attendance Notice for two counts of possess prohibited drug (amphetamine and cannabis).<\/p>\n
A 23-year-old man was issued with a Field Court Attendance Notice for sell liquor without required responsible service of alcohol qualification.<\/p>\n
Police will allege over 550 containers of alcohol along with ledgers, associated documents and cash were seized in the unlicensed premises; which was subsequently closed down.<\/p>\n
Several vehicles leaving the clubhouse were also stopped by Traffic & Highway Patrol officers who issued six major defects and 10 DECC notices for excessive exhaust noise.<\/p>\n
Albury Local Area Commander, Superintendent Evan Quarmby, said local police would continue to utilise all resources at their disposal to disrupt OMCG criminal activity in the area.<\/p>\n
\u201cAny OMCG member who breaks the law can expect to come to the full attention of police,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe public should not have to put up with their criminal behaviour and we certainly won\u2019t tolerate it.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would urge any person who has information about the criminal activities of OMCGs to come forward. All information can also be given in strict confidence.\u201d said Supt Quarmby<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
