Australian customs officials arrested a 33-year-old Australian man on November 20, 2008, after they discovered that the two skateboard decks he was carrying from Auckland New Zealand contained a little more more than 8-plys of maple.
The decks were opened, allegedly revealing three packages containing 600 grams of white powder. . . .Preliminary tests indicated the presence of cocaine, Customs and AFP said.
If found guilty he could face 25 years in prison and or a $550,000 fine.
