The investigation began when Cumbria Police received information that a new ‘County Line’ drugs line had gone live in Carlisle in May 2020. The number, ending 666, had been sending out bulk advertising text messages offering to supply crack cocaine and heroin. The drug dealers were identifying themselves and the drugs they sold with the trade name of ‘Red’. Cumbria Police’s North Area Drugs Squad commenced Operation Denier to identify and dismantle this new attempt to flood Carlisle with Class A drugs.
