More than £10,000 worth of illegal vapes and tobacco have been seized in a raid at a shop in West Bromwich.
Sandwell Council teams and West Midlands Police officers were supported by Cooper the sniffer dog, from BWY Canine Ltd, when they swooped on the shop, which has not been named.
Cooper helped trading standards officers to identify illegal goods around the premises, including an electro-magnetic operated concealment underneath the counter and two secret panels behind a false wall.
There was also intelligence that the energy supply to the property had been de-energised.
