Police have charged a 37-year-old Hadspen man with multiple firearms, drug and stolen property offences as part of an investigation led by Taskforce Raven.
Detective Acting Inspector Aziz Melick said several search warrants were executed at various Hadspen addresses last week, with police locating illicit drugs, ammunition and a firearm, as well as more than $50,000 of stolen property.
"As well as locating illicit drugs, a firearm and ammunition, officers from Taskforce Raven and the Northern Criminal Investigation Division seized a significant amount of power tools, household appliances and industrial materials believed to be stolen," he said.
"Police believe the stolen property relates to multiple offences committed in northern Tasmania recently."
"The 37-year-old man was charged with more than 15 offences, and will appear in court at a later date."
"Our Taskforce Raven members will continue to work alongside our uniform and criminal investigation areas to keep our communities safe."
"Community support and information is vital to reducing crime."
"If you see something, or you know something, call police or submit a tip to Crime Stoppers."
