Dramatic footage shows police batter down door in York drugs raid

York police have shared some dramatic footage of a drugs raid in the city.

Video from a bodycam shows the York Neighbourhood Policing Team serving a drug warrant in the Clifton area of the city last week after receiving information of a possible cannabis growth in the loft of a property.

Searches of the house turned up a number of cannabis plants and cultivation equipment, which were all seized along with a mobile phone.
