A major police crackdown in Townsville has resulted in 30 people being charged with more than 110 offences following a targeted deployment of the Queensland Police Service's State Flying Squad.

The operation involved specialist investigators working alongside local Townsville police and intelligence officers. The deployment focused on a range of offences affecting the community, including property crime, drug offences, domestic violence and traffic-related matters.

Police said the latest deployment involved charges against 15 adults for 53 offences and 15 young people for 63 offences. Investigators also carried out search warrants and seized suspected drugs during the operation.

One of the investigations involved a raid in Vincent, where two women, aged 41 and 22, were charged with multiple drug offences. Police also charged a 17-year-old boy with 18 offences allegedly involving burglary and vehicle theft.

The State Flying Squad was deployed to support local officers by taking on targeted investigations and helping police respond more quickly to serious and repeat offending.

Police said the specialist team provides additional investigative capacity and allows local officers to continue responding to day-to-day calls while complex investigations are progressed.

The operation covered different types of crime rather than focusing on a single incident. Property offences, drug activity, domestic violence and traffic offences were among the matters investigated.

Authorities said the deployment forms part of continuing efforts to improve community safety across the Townsville District. Police are expected to continue working with local investigators and intelligence teams to identify suspected offenders and disrupt ongoing criminal activity.

The number of charges does not mean that every allegation has been proven. People charged with offences remain presumed innocent unless and until they are found guilty in court.

The operation also demonstrates the role of specialist police units in regional Queensland. State Flying Squad deployments can provide additional resources when local areas experience increased demand or require specialist investigative support.

Police have indicated that the squad will continue supporting communities across Queensland through further deployments and cooperation with local police.

For Townsville residents, the operation represents a significant increase in police activity targeting a broad range of offences. The large number of charges reflects several investigations conducted during the deployment rather than one individual crime.

Further court proceedings will determine the outcomes of the charges, while police investigations may continue where additional evidence or suspected offenders are identified.
