Truck driver's arrest sparks SA drug bust

THE arrest of a truck driver in NSW has led to a drug bust in South Australia.

Police on Wednesday stopped a truck on the Sturt Highway, near Gol Gol, and found six bags of cannabis weighing about 160 grams, leading them to charge the 42-year-old driver.

Information about the arrest was shared with South Australia Police (SAPOL).

Members of SAPOL's Heavy Vehicle Enforcement Section on Friday searched the truck driver's home in Albert Park, SA, and allegedly located about two kilograms of dried cannabis, an amount of cash and a number of firearms.

The man was rearrested and charged with trafficking cannabis and firearms offences.

NSW Police Traffic and Highway Patrol Operations Commander, Superintendent Stuart Smith, said officers will continue to target the heavy vehicle industry to curb drivers and operators who break the law.

" ... whether that's through unsafe driving practices or criminal activities such as transporting drugs across borders," Supt Smith said in a statement.

The man was granted conditional bail to appear in Wentworth Local Court on July 8.
