ITEM READS:
COPS CONFISCATE BOTTLED MAGIC WORTH £220MIL
Cops raided Pit's Stop last night in the middle of a sale of shapeshifter magic. Manager Rowan Cash has been arrested and awaits interrogation. Police have long suspected the illegal activity but previous raids have come up empty. Following an anonymous tip, police were finally able to find the illegal store of bottled magic hidden behind an encrypted door masked by digital mirrors, including invisibility magic, fire magic, and sleep magic.
Customers in the know could request any of these in a drink, or even purchase entire vials from the establishment. Every customer present was questioned on suspicion of buying and consuming illegal magic, with twenty-three of them arrested on the spot for the crime. Pub owner Henry Groves has declined to comment.
