In June, police across the country targeted members and associates of the Hell\u2019s Angels Motorcycle Club, laying 18 charges for firearms and class A and B drugs offences.<\/p>\n

This was part of Taskforce Morpheus, a joint operation with Australian law enforcement<\/a> agencies, carried out as part of a \u201cNational Day of Action\u201d targeting criminal offending, police said at the time.<\/p>\n

Illegal items seized include three AR-15 military semi-automatic rifles, as well as firearm parts and ammunition, in Te Atat\u016b Peninsula, Detective Inspector Wayne Gray said. <\/p>\n

\u201cAt a gang pad in the Takanini area, 400 bottles of alcohol and spirits were seized in relation to alleged breaches of the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have seized quantities of MDMA, methamphetamine and GBL,\u201d said Gray, who is from the National Gang Unit. <\/p>\n

Overall, more than $150,000 in cash and approximately $93,000 in jewellery was found, and police impounded a Mercedes-Benz and a Ford Ranger in Mt Eden<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Three patched members and two associates of the gang had been charged after the operation, Gray said.<\/p>\n

Charges include unlawful possession of prohibited firearms, possession for supply of Fantasy and possession for supply of methamphetamine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"No further information was available at this stage, the spokesperson said.
