A 76-year-old Canadian man allegedly tried to smuggle more than $22 million worth of crystal meth hidden in shoeboxes through Melbourne Airport – telling border officials it was just salt.
The drug haul was discovered by Australian Border Force officers when they searched the Canadian national's luggage after he arrived on a flight from Los Angeles on Wednesday morning.
Australian Federal Police said the elderly man claimed the substance was salt, but when officers ran a test it returned a positive result for methamphetamine.
