Male caught drug dealing and charged in April update - arrested again by the Ealing Common and Hanger Hill Teams

Good Morning residents, 

On Tuesday 21/07/26 officers from Ealing Common and Hanger Hill SNT were on proactive patrols when they took a call to drug users and a male with knife on the green area adjacent to Leopold Road, W5. On arrival a male tried to run and while doing so discarded a clingfilm wrap containing numerous loose rocks of crack cocaine. He was caught, arrested on suspicion of Possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, Possession of Cannabis and was conveyed to Wembley custody. Through consultation with the Crown Prosecution Service, the male received charges for Possession with intent to supply Class A drugs and possession of Cannabis. 

The male was remanded in custody and went to court on the morning of 22/07/26.

This same male was previously arrested by Sergeant Love and PC Young back in April this year, in Leopold Rd in similar circumstances, resulting in similar charges. Unfortunately due to the court back log his trial at Isleworth Crown Court was not listed until late 2030. I am pleased to announce that the male has now been remanded in Prison until a hearing on 19/08/26 and both matters will be heard at a Crown Court trial this year !

Whilst in custody the male was also issued with a Community Protection Notice, with conditions not to enter the Ealing Common and Hanger Hill Wards. This is to protect the public should he be released awaiting trial. 

I hope this demonstrates our crime fighting capabilities and dedication to keeping our wards safe. 

Please continue to report suspicious activity, your information is crucial to helping us fight crime !

Kind Regards 

Sergeant Love
