After receiving information from the public, WA Police seized a large amount of illegal alcohol from a vehicle travelling in the Broome area on Friday, May 4. In this video, released on Tuesday, May 8, a bulldozer is seen destroying the haul.
Officers from the Kimberley Liquor Enforcement Unit stopped the car and found more than 14 bottles of spirits and 12 cases of beer concealed throughout the vehicle. They said the information they had received suggested the alcohol was intended for a liquor-restricted community.
Restrictions are in place for several communities in the Kimberley region for the safety and protection of community members. The Liquor Enforcement Unit said they have a no-tolerance approach to the conveyance of alcohol into any of these restricted zones. Credit: Kimberley District – WA Police Force via Storyful
