Four NSW men charged over drugs, guns

NSW police have charged four men with several serious drug offences after more than two kilograms of drugs and four guns were seized during raids.

More than two kilograms of drugs and four guns have been seized during raids on the NSW south coast.

Four men were charged following Friday's large operation at five homes in Shoalhaven and Lake Illawarra that netted 714 grams of crystal methamphetamine, or ice, worth about $150,000, as well as 1.8 kilograms of cannabis, steroids and four guns.

"Officers also seized a large amount of property suspected of being stolen including motor vehicles, a boat, a caravan, poker machines, tools, computers, ammunition and cash," police said.

The raids came after three men, 29, 31 and 35, were arrested in the car park of a fast food outlet at Haywards Bay earlier on Friday.

Another man, 26, was arrested after the searches.

He's been charged with several drug supply offences and was due before Nowra Local Court on Saturday.

The three others are also facing a raft of charges, including commercial supply of a prohibited drug.

They fronted Wollongong Local Court on Saturday, where they were refused bail and ordered to reappear on Monday.
