An Uzi submachine gun is among a haul of firearms has been found in a Manukau storage unit as police investigations continue into organised crime

11 June 2021

Detective Superintendent Greg Williams says officers also seized six revolvers, a glock pistol and ammunition.

They also found half a kilo of methamphetamine and yet to be identified tablets.

A 27-year-old man's been charged with unlawfully possessing the firearms.

The find's linked to Operation Trojan Shield raids earlier this week - so far in New Zealand, 36 people have been charged with a wide range of serious drug, firearms and money laundering offences.

More than five-million-dollars in assets and cash has been seized.
