You said we did: Drugs warrant

Dear residents, 

Last Thursday (3rd July) officers from South SNT, CID, Task Force and the dog unit carried out a drugs warrant at a property in Brackenfield. 

Four mobile phones were seized, along with £900 in cash and scales. No drugs were found at the address.

Both men, aged 22 and 28, were arrested at the scene on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs. 

PC Ash Doignie, from Brookside Safer Neighbourhood Team, said: “Drug dealing has a negative impact in our communities, often leading to other criminality and the exploitation of vulnerable people.

“Based off of concerns raised by the local community we were able to carry out today’s warrant, which shows that we are taking clear action, to stop the supply of drugs and the harm in this town.”
