Four men arrested in Melbourne drug bust

Raids on eight properties across Melbourne have seen four men charged with drug offences, with more than $40,000 in cash also seized.

Detectives from the Divisional Response Unit targeted homes and commercial properties in the northwestern suburbs, including Little River, Docklands, Altona North, Coburg North, Avondale Heights and Essendon.

In addition to cash, police also allegedly found steroids, cocaine, methylamphetamine, cannabis and ammunition.

A 35-year-old Essendon man was charged with ammunition offences, while a 44-year-old Balwyn North man was charged with trafficking and possessing a drug of dependence.

Another man, a 25-year-old from Altona North, was also charged with trafficking and possessing a drug of dependence in addition to possessing the proceeds of crime.

All three have been bailed and are expected to appear at the Broadmeadows Magistrates' Court on March 2, 2016.

A fourth man, a 36-year-old from Docklands, was also charged and bailed with trafficking and possessing drugs and the proceeds of crime.

He is expected to front Melbourne Magistrates' Court on the same date.
