"Stop Drugs" coordinator Sandris Bergmanis told LETA that patrols visited all the "legal drugs" outlets they knew of in Riga. In most cases, salespeople locked themselves in as soon as they saw the patrols approach.
Nevertheless, "Stop Drugs" patrols managed to enter at least six such venues and call police officers, who seized suspicious substances.
At one of the most popular "legal drugs" outlets in Riga, located on Ernesta Birznieka Upisa Street, the Municipal Police seized 64 packs of herbal mixes.
