A hoard of illegal vapes and illicit smoking products has been seized in Norwich.
The haul was gathered last Wednesday in an attempt to stop the sale of illegal vapes and the shops that sell them to children.
In the latest crackdown a "significant amount" of illicit cigarettes, hand-rolling tobacco and illegal vapes were taken from three separate shops across the city.

A tobacco detection dog helped find the illegal products which were hidden within the businesses searched and stored within their vehicles.
The crackdown was a joint police effort with Norwich Safer Neighbourhood Team and Norfolk County Council Trading Standards.
Police would not comment on which shops were selling the illegal products and in what quantity.
