Police operation scanning for weapons

Police conducted a handheld scanning operation

Tuggerah Lakes Police and officers from the NSW Police Transport Command were on the beat last week conducting a handheld scanning operation around the Tuggerah Lakes area.

The operation on Thursday, September 11, particularly focused on the Lake Haven, Bateau Bay and Tuggerah shopping precincts.

During the operation, 390 people were stopped and scanned by the officers, with no unlawful items located during the scans but at one of the locations, officers located a discarded kitchen knife which was seized.

Similar operations will continue across the area targeting knife crime, possession of weapons, and antisocial behaviour.
