Police raid cannabis cafe for sixth time [UK]

Police raid cannabis cafe for sixth time
June 8, 2008 - arguslite.co.uk

A "cannabis cafe" has been raided for a sixth time by police.

Officers from Adur police attended the cafe in Freshbrook Road, Lancing, at about 2.30pm yesterday.

According to locals between 40 and 50 officers were at the scene and mobile police units and scientific support units were set up.

A police helicopter also attended.

Chief Inspector Laurence Hobbs, Adur District Commander, said: "This is the sixth time we have raided these premises and we will continue to execute search warrants all the while the owners openly float the law.

"We have received a number of complaints from local residents complaining of an increase in antisocial behaviour associated with these premises and I say to them that we remain committed to disrupt the sale of drugs and working with Adur District council to have the place closed down.

"These things unfortunately take time and I ask them to bear with us as we gain further evidence from these raids.

"It is too early to tell how many people will be arrested or how much drugs have been found during today's raids."

Police used a disc cutter to try and get through the front door and smashed a window of the premises, which has protective tyres, a CCTV system and steel doors, before someone opened the door from the inside.

A spokesperson for the cafe said police had not found anything.

He said: "They turned the CCTV off while they did the search, which is a bit concerning.

"While it was going on a couple of residents came out and said it was ridiculous. They said the only time they get grief down here is when the police come.

"The tactics they are using, such as sitting outside peoples' houses and searching people who live here, are annoying residents.

"This is the sixth raid they have done and they haven't really got anything and they have spent hundreds of thousands of pounds of tax payers money."

If i recall correctly these guys have a awesome system where they can see the cops arrive on the camera, then while the reinforced doors delay the cops for a few minutes, all the evidence is tossed into a big furnace, so by the time the cops finally break through or are allowed in, everybody's clean and they can't bust anybody.  Pretty amazing this is the sixth time they've tried.

Solution?
a single undercover cop. Its not like they lock customers out that makes no sense. But if cops have limitless funding and are allowed to fuckin break shit and fly helicopters... hell I would to

Geeze, you can't even fart in public in the UK without getting a ticket for anti-social behavior.
