Police say they search a vape shop after an alert from a sniffer dog and discover a concealed storage area inside the premises. Officers remove a wooden wall panel and find a secret compartment containing illegal tobacco.
The outlets’ reporting focuses on how the compartment is built to evade detection, describing it as an elaborate hidden chamber. In the accounts provided, the operation centres on the dog alert leading to a targeted inspection and the physical discovery of contraband tobacco once the panel is opened.
The specific details beyond the discovery—such as the amount of tobacco, whether any arrests are made, and how the items are linked to the shop’s owners—are not provided in the excerpts. Overall, the reporting aligns on the sequence of events: dog alert, inspection, concealed compartment, and illegal tobacco found inside.
