A cleaner and keeler East, Melbourne, stumbled on a massive hall back on January 24th drugs, firearms, explosives, and over one million. Dollars and cash stuffed inside a short-term rental. The spot had been rented out for weeks that month, and those incendiary devices were no joke, so the bomb response unit and Australian defense force stepped in for controlled detonations to keep things safe. Police are calling this straight-up organized crime, way beyond your average bust, with Detective Inspector Jamie Walker from The Major Drug Squad. Stressing how serious it is, they've interviewed a guy linked to the booking and let him go while they dig deeper, plus released CCTV images of a man fueling a white Toyota Camry. At a service station on the Western Ring Road in Ardeer on Christmas Day, that ride made repeated trips to the property. The Camry was higher from a rental company, but the man in the picks ain't the higher, who's not playing ball with cops right now. Anyone with info, hit. Up Victoria Police before they track you down.
