WA Police have seized more than 150 packages containing illicit drugs, in a four day blitz in the lead up to Leaver’s week.
The packages contained mostly methamphetamine, but also ecstasy, cocaine, LSD, cannabis and a range of other drugs.
Acting Commander John Ballantyne said many of the intended recipients would now face charges including possession and possession with intent to supply.
“Some of the intended recipients have been identified as being 17 and 18 years old, so it is not unreasonable to suggest that some of those drugs could have been destined for Leavers,” he said.
“What I do know is that none of those drugs will make it to Leavers.”
The organised crime squad and canine unit were involved in the operation targeting drugs sent through the post.
Police said they were still trying to determine whether the drugs were purchased online and whether they came from interstate, overseas or a combination of both.
The purpose of the operation was to limit the amount of drugs on the street during Leavers, which begins on Monday.
The seizures ranged from small packages to larger ones, including 100 ecstasy tablets, 84 grams of amphetamine, 87.5 grams MDMA powder and 100 LSD tabs.
Acting Commander Ballantyne once again urged parents to talk to their children about the dangers associated with illicit drugs.
“It’s up to parents to talk to their leavers now to make sure they make the right decisions, not the wrong ones, a bad decision now could lead to implications into the future which could have far reaching consequences.”

New inspectors join Pilbara district office
Two new inspectors have joined the Pilbara police district office in Karratha.
Ken Nicolson will be supervising police stations in West Pilbara.
John Ballantyne will oversee crime management and governance.
They are replacing Inspector Craig Lockhart who has moved to Perth and Inspector Phil Clews who is moving to Broome.
Inspector Ballantyne has just returned from a stint with the Australian Federal Police in the Solomon Islands and East Timor.
His role in the Pilbara will be to “police the police”.
Inspector Ballantyne says his new role will provide a challenge.
“It’s to ensure that the police within the Pilbara adhere to the policies and the procedures of the WA Police Service and indeed the statute laws set by Government,” he said.

Canberra Times (ACT : 1926 – 1995), Monday 3 October 1966, page 1
Identi-kit picture of youth
Police constructed this Indenti-kit picture from descriptions of the boy said to have been seen in the area where Alan Redston was killed. The picture was issued to newspapers and television stations yesterday.
Police searching for the killer of six-year old Alan Geoffrey Redston issued yesterday an Identi-kit drawing of a youth wanted for questioning.
The identi-kit picture was shown on television yesterday and will continue to be shown during the week. The description was broadcast also.
The description of the youth, as given by police, is 13 to 15 years of age, about 5ft 6in tall, with blond hair which possibly falls over his forehead when untidy. He may have a scar over his left eye.
A statement issued by Canberra police said, “It is believed this person can assist inquiries and resides in or frequents the Woden Valley area.
“When last seen in the Curtin dump area on Monday, September 26, after school hours, he was described as wearing a white pullover or T-shirt with blue jeans and riding a bicycle which had a spade attached to it”.
Police see boys
Yesterday two boys whom police believe might identify this youth were interviewed in Canberra by Senior Constable John Schmidt of the modus operandi section, CIB, Sydney.
Constable Schmidt flew to Canberra for the day to help compile a composite picture of the youth from descriptions.
He said the identi-kit had been used successfully by NSW police investigating crimes. It contained 525 slides, and was capable of producing 62 billion variations of the human face.
The body of Alan Redston was found, bound and wrapped in a house coat and in pieces of felt, in the bed of Yarralumla Creek at Curtin on Wednesday morning. An autopsy showed he had died of strangulation caused by a rope looped around his neck and tied lo another rope binding his hands and feet.
Detective Constable B. W. Baulman, of Canberra, one of the 12 detectives on the case, said yesterday police had discontinued inquiries in the northern suburb of Hackett after questioning several boys.
Investigations in that area had failed to produce any new information.
Police have been working 18 hours a day interviewing children and householders. They have called at homes, and have stopped boys in the street in the Woden Valley seeking information. They attended Alan Redston’s funeral at the Methodist National Memorial Church, Forrest, on Saturday afternoon with several boys.
Following the death notification issued yesterday, all members are advised that a funeral service for the late Mrs Lynda Lawrie, rego 9141670 is to be held at the North Chapel, Pinegrove Memorial Park, Kington Street, Minchinbury on Thursday, 16 March 2017 at 1300hr. All friends and former colleagues are invited to attend.
The Lawrie family have accepted an offer of police involvement at the funeral service. The Penrith Local Area Command will provide a Guard of Honour at the chapel at the commencement of the service.
Dearest Lynda, rest easy my friend and thanks for all the wonderful memories and good times. Your boys did you proud today. It was a beautiful service. You will be missed greatly. Big hugs Claire and Bushy xxx

Boy suffers aneurysm after alleged attack in schoolyard
Rachel Olding
A high school student has reportedly suffered an aneurysm after an attack by a schoolyard bully.
Josh Lawrie, 15, was allegedly attacked last Monday at St Dominic’s College, a Catholic school in Kingswood, in western Sydney, Channel 7 Newsreported.

He was reportedly walking through the schoolyard at lunchtime and was punched from behind by a student, who has since been suspended.
He continued to be punched while face-down on the ground until a friend intervened, Channel 7 News said.

“The next thing I remember is being in the bathroom washing my face,” Josh said.
A police spokesman confirmed that Josh and his mother went to St Mary’s police station on Tuesday, the day after the incident, to report “an assault which is alleged to have occurred at a local high school”.
“After reporting the matter to police, the teen was taken to hospital by his mother for scans and treatment of head injuries,” the spokesman said.
Channel 7 News reported that the school initially sent Josh home with his mother Lynda Lawrie, rather than calling an ambulance.

The aneurysm only surfaced during later scans.
The teenager has since undergone brain surgery and will spend his school holidays in hospital.
“I’ve … got a major brain problem and he’s just going to get a suspension for that,” Josh told Channel 7 News.
“He’s wrecked my life and he’ll only get a slap on the wrist.
“I don’t think that’s really good enough,” he said.
Channel 7 News reported that Josh has been told by doctors that he won’t be able to play sport again and will have to take blood thinning medication for the rest of his life.
Josh has been repeatedly bullied at the school and his parents told Channel 7 News that they believe the offender should be held accountable.
Ms Lawrie said that the first thing she was asked when she brought her son to the hospital was why he wasn’t taken in by an ambulance.
His father Richard Lawrie said “young fellas have to realise what they are doing” and think about the consequences of their actions.
A police spokesman said: “Police have obtained a number of statements and are now conducting inquiries into the matter.”
The school has not released an official comment but told Channel 7 News that there are two sides to the story.

Man ‘in fear for his life’
MELBOURNE: A 40-year old man who was ordered to be extradited to NSW yesterday was in fear for his life, his counsel told the City Court.
Detective Senior Constable John O’Hagan, of the NSW police armed-robbery squad, presented an application for the extradition of Mr Edwin John Middleton before Mr Danaher, SM.
The application stated that Mr Middleton was wanted to appear in court in Sydney charged with indictable offences.
Mr Tony Fisher, for Mr Middleton, said Mr Middleton thought his life “wouldn’t be worth tuppence” if he was sent to the Long Bay Jail central cells without police protection.
He feared he would be “got at” in the cells unless he had police protection.
Detective O’Hagan said provisions had been made for Mr Middleton’s safety.
Mr Danaher ordered Mr Middleton to be returned to Sydney in the custody of Detective O’Hagan.
SYDNEY: Detective Sergeant John Henry Walton, 37, was killed and Detective Senior Constable John O’Hagan, 33, was seriously injured when a police car driven by Detective O’Hagan ran into a horse-float in Epping early yesterday.
