Seventeen thousand vapes with a street value of one million dollars have been seized by authorities thanks to a tip-off.

The devices were found in a truck which left from New South Wales, and when tested  were found to contain nicotine.

6PR Reporter Jake Battrick told Simon Beaumont on 6PR Mornings the vapes have a street value of more than a million dollars.

“It’s the biggest single vape seizure in Western Australia,” Mr Battrick said.
