Ch Insp Michael Graf von Moltke said police had had the pizzeria in a popular party district of the city in their sights since March, when a routine food inspection uncovered the drug in kitchen. Narcotics investigators put the business under surveillance and noticed that Pizza No 40 was a customer favourite.
