Raids reveal crop houses
POLICE feared a man and a woman found walking along Peninsula Link would be run down, Sunday 26 February. They approached the couple near the FrankstonDandenong Rd exit and found the man “uncooperative and argumentative”, 12.15am. “He attempted to walk away,” Senior Sergeant Michael Lamb, of Frankston police, said. “Police were concerned he would walk into traffic but he resisted and attempted to punch an officer. OC foam was used and the man was wrestled to the ground and arrested”. The policeman suffered minor injuries. The man, 28, of Patterson Lakes, was charged with assaulting police and resisting arrest. He will be charged on summons to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court at a later date. The woman was charged with hindering police and inciting others to resist police. She will receive an infringement notice.
POLICE raids on properties in Patterson Lakes and Carrum Downs last week allegedly found more than 120 cannabis plants and elaborate hydroponic set ups – and even a specially insulated roof to prevent heat being detected by police helicopters. The raids carried out at 7.30am, Tuesday 21 February, were part of police operation called Rebuker 16. A Colac Ct property was allegedly found to house about 90 cannabis plants and two fully functional hydro units with lamps in two rear bedrooms. At the rear was a garage also set up as a hydro unit allegedly holding 10 more fully grown cannabis plants. A large backpack containing a garbage bag full of cannabis buds and a ziplock bag were also found, police said. A man, 43, and woman, 29, were arrested and taken back to Chelsea police station for interview. A second raid on the same day was carried out at a property in Myna Ct, Carrum Downs,. Here, police will allege they found a “sophisticated” cannabis crop room in the garage containing 31 large cannabis plants. They will allege the accused had built a special room inside the garage with insulation between its two roofs to prevent heat being detected by police helicopters flying overhead. An electrical bypass system had also been installed, preventing the power company identifying the user of large amounts of electricity. The 43-year-old man was charged with cultivating, trafficking and possessing a drug of dependence at the two properties. He was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court in May. A Bonbeach woman, 29, will be charged on summons with outstanding warrants.
Hit-run guilty plea A MINI-MOTORBIKE rider has pleaded guilty to the hit-and-run fatality that killed a motherof-two at Carrum Downs shopping centre in September 2015. Caleb Jakobsson, now 20 but aged 18 at the time of the tragedy, changed his plea to guilty last week and was further remanded to face court in May on charges of culpable driving causing death and failing to stop at the scene of an accident. Jakobsson’s “monkey bike” is said to have struck Andrea Lehane as she walked on a pedestrian crossing in the car park. She was thrown up to seven metres when struck at a speed of “between 30kph to 40kph”, according to witnesses, and suffered critical head injuries. Her life support was turned off two days later in hospital.

STUDENTS from Frankston primary schools are learning their A to Z of healthy eating thanks to an innovative program, run by the Department of Justice and Regulation and Jesuit Social Services, at Frankston North Community Centre. Under the program, participants on community corrections orders participated in a healthy eating program which gave them a better understanding of healthy eating practises, and helped
them work on their literacy and numeracy skills. Bev Garrett from the Department of Justice said part of the program involved the women making healthy eating cards for primary schools to help students learn the importance of a healthy diet. Mahogany Rise Primary School was the first school to receive the cards at Friday’s handover.
