On October 11, 2022, as part of investigations into county lines drug dealing activity, officers executed a warrant at a property in The Briars, in Briar Hill, Northampton.
Inside, they recovered 60 wraps of the Class A drug crack cocaine with an estimated street value of £600, and arrested 21-year-old Pedro Armando and 22-year-old Abdul Hassan.
Investigations revealed the pair had been running a drug line between the capital and Northampton since at least April of that year, moving heroin and cocaine up to Northampton and then pushing sales to users via text messages.
