Meth, MDMA, replica pistol, stolen goods seized in Junee raid
A MAJOR two-pronged police operation targeting drug supply and property crime across Wagga has now reached Junee.
Officers from the Region Enforcement Squad stormed a property on Gundagai Road about 9am on Friday, October 10, allegedly seizing methylamphetamine, MDMA, a replica Glock pistol and ammunition.
Police also recovered property believed to have been stolen, and say investigations into the Junee find are continuing.

The raid was one of several carried out across the Riverina on Friday morning, including at Mount Austin, where officers allegedly seized cannabis, methylamphetamine, ammunition and a motorbike suspected to be stolen from a home on Wren Street.
Further quantities of methylamphetamine and cannabis were also allegedly seized from a property in Slocum Street, Wagga.
The latest developments form part of a coordinated strike that has seen more than a dozen search warrants executed across Wagga and surrounding areas under Strike Forces Durdin and Coyote in less than a week.
