Police in the West Australian town of Denmark have announced what is believed to be the first dimethyltryptamine (DMT) bust in the state’s history, seizing two grams of the psychedelic drug.

Authorities believed that they had uncovered a major drug smuggling operation before they had time to sleep it off and realised they had only seized two grams.
The three men arrested in the raids may have concluded that Denmark shares a liberal attitude to drugs with the neighbouring Netherlands.
The accused cannot be named because they were so fucking high. One waived his right to silence and said something about “mechanical elves”.
Trace amounts of DMT occur naturally in the human body. Following today’s arrests, Denmark police station will continue working from the comprehensive list of suspects they found in the White Pages.
“We’re working on 2.1 million leads,” a spokesman told The Daily Grind.
Police say that DMT is extracted from certain types of tree bark and then refined using a complex cooking process. For obvious reasons, that cooking process cannot be detailed here, but if readers are interested, check out the December issue of Australian Good Taste.
Sergeant Dave Dench told Perth’s Sunday Times that intelligence suggested that DMT was being sold in one-gram packages at a cost of $200. He then winked at the assembled media and motioned towards a nearby laneway.
