HAVERSTRAW, NY — Authorities from Rockland County, along with state and federal agencies, conducted a coordinated search warrant execution at a local smoke shop located at 48 Broadway in the Village of Haverstraw.
The operation took place under the direction of the Rockland County District Attorney’s Office, Homeland Security Investigations, and other state and local enforcement units.
District Attorney Tom Walsh commented on the operation, stating, “Today’s action sends a clear message that all business in Rockland must be conducted lawfully.”
The raid follows multiple public complaints, prompting a thorough investigation by several agencies including the New York State Tax and Finance, New York State Office of Cannabis Management, and the Town of Haverstraw Police Department.
The execution of this search warrant marks a significant step in a broader investigation, with further details expected to be disclosed as the case progresses. Authorities have stressed that this investigation is ongoing and that more information will be made available to the public in due course.
As this case develops, it is important to remember that a criminal complaint is merely an accusation, and the defendant(s) involved in this case are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty in a court of law.
