Police have arrested border-breaching Melbourne fan Hayden Burbank and searched his up-market bar.
Mr Burbank, 50, of Toorak was detained on Wednesday as detectives from Stonnington criminal investigation unit executed two warrants.
A house in Ross St, Toorak, was the subject of a warrant on Wednesday.
Officers also carried out a warrant on Mr Burbank’s Morris Jones venue, on Chapel St in Windsor, at 11.30am.
“Police arrested a 50-year-old Toorak man and seized prescription medication. The man was released pending further inquiries,” a Victoria Police statement said.
Mr Burbank was jailed in West Australia last year after breaching Covid laws by sneaking into the state while it was in lockdown.
He spent three months in the maximum security Hakea Prison in Perth.
The Morris Jones website described the venue as a restaurant and cocktail wine bar and is regarded as a hotspot in Melbourne’s affluent eastern suburbs circles.
