Officers in G District secured £30,000 worth of the drug and £2,500 in cash on Thursday and £50,000 of the drug on Friday. Three people arrested on Thursday have been released on bail.

I am extremely grateful to the local community for their assistance in this investigation and can state any information received in relation to drugs use or supply allows us to further our investigations and rid our neighbourhood of these deadly substances.”
