Drugs Warrant executed

Four have been arrested after the Scunthorpe Town Neighbourhood Policing Team, alongside officers from our Kinetic Intervention Team, executed a warrant at a property on the Market Hill Estate in Scunthorpe Town Centre yesterday (Tuesday, 10 February 2026).

 Also present were representatives from ONGO and North Lincolnshire Council Safer Neighbourhoods Team as officers forced entry into the address, and three men and a woman were located inside. 

A quantity of what are believed to be class A drugs were subsequently seized from the address, and all four individuals were swiftly detained on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs. The four arrested have since been released under investigation whilst enquiries continue. 

The Section 8 Police and Criminal Evidence Act (PACE) warrant was authorised as a result of information gathered from local residents and partners, showing the importance of reporting any concerns or suspicions around drug use in your area.
