A woman has been charged after police allegedly found almost 100 grams of methylamphetamine concealed inside a nappy during a vehicle stop in Temora.
Police stopped two vehicles on Aurora Street at about 11:30 pm on Friday (19 June) as part of an ongoing investigation into alleged drug supply in the area.
Officers attached to Riverina Police District allegedly located 93 grams of methylamphetamine wrapped in a nappy and hidden in the footwell of one of the vehicles.
Three people – two women aged 27 and 23, and a 32-year-old man – were arrested and taken to Temora Police Station.
