Drug sales

Serious and Organised Crime Branch detectives said the four accused were working independently of each other.

Three alleged offenders, a 30-year-old Adelaide man, a 23-year-old from Angle Vale and a 25-year-old man from Greenwith, are facing charges of trafficking a controlled drug.

A 32-year-old man from Aldgate is charged with trafficking a controlled drug, along with cultivation of a controlled plant for sale, possessing prescribed equipment and possessing a controlled drug for sale.

All are to face Adelaide Magistrates Court.

Aged 34 from the Hela province, the suspect was intercepted this morning in front of the Freeway Motors car lot near the Big Rooster 4 mile area.

Police said the man had 5kg of marijuana and had previously been picked up but escaped from custody on similar charges in 2011.

He is now detained at Boroko.

In a separate incident,  Hohola police caught and arrested a youth from Hula who was selling drugs near the park adjacent to RH Hyper mart.
