As stated by Detective Sergeant Paul Slater, Queenstown Lakes CIB:
Queenstown Police executed a search warrant at an address in Arrowtown yesterday for property stolen in a burglary earlier this month.
Two people were arrested, and during the search Police located more than 200 LSD tablets as well as a small quantity of methamphetamine and MDMA.
A 34-year-old man is due to appear in Queenstown District Court on 26 July facing charges related to burglary, and a 35-year-old man has been charged with possession for supply of a class A drug.
It appears as though the tablets were stolen with the intention of on-selling to members of the public via various channels.
