Early wake up call for number of Clase residents as officers carry out drug warrants

Several properties in Clase had an 8am morning call from officers as they carried out warrants at three different properties.

As part of an operation to target drug dealing the warrants were all executed simultaneously.

Cash and drugs were recovered from the properties and two people have been arrested.  A 38 year old man and a 39 year old woman have both been arrested on suspicion of supplying Class A drugs.

Detective Inspector Marc Gardner said: “These warrants have been executed as part of our commitment in fighting organised crime.  As a result of these warrants drugs and cash obtained by criminal activity has been removed from the streets.
