Police Praise Tip-Offs from Community

“This intelligence-led warrant would not have been possible without information received from members of the community and should send out a very clear message,” said Inspector Rob Lawton.

“The supply of drugs devastates communities, fueling violence, antisocial behaviour, and exploitation. We’re working tirelessly to cut this crime out and protect the public.”

“I encourage anyone spotting suspicious drug activity to get in touch — your tip could be the crucial piece of evidence we need.”
