Officers from Thanet’s Community Policing Team were on patrol in the Dane Valley area during the morning of Wednesday 12 October 2022 when they saw people behaving suspiciously near a car.
A search of the vehicle resulted in officers finding a wrap of suspected class A drugs. Further enquiries at a property in Margate town centre led to the team uncovering large quantities of class A and B drugs, including an individual block of suspected cocaine with an estimated street value of over £5,000. Cash, scales, bags and other items usually associated with drug dealing were also seized.
