Police have arrested three people after carrying out drugs raids in York today (Thursday).
They executed warrants at two addresses following information received from the public.
A North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “The warrants were conducted as part of the clear-hold-build initiative targeting those who we suspect are complicit in the supply of drugs into the Clifton area of York.”
An 18-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class-A drugs, driving with no licence or insurance and possession of criminal property.
A 36-year-old man and a 41-year-old woman were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class-A drugs and possession of criminal property.
They have since been released under investigation. Enquiries are continuing.
Sergeant Stuart Henderson of the York Neighbourhood Policing Team said: “We thank the community for their ongoing support and are committed to preventing harm that is created by those individuals that are involved in serious and organised crime.
“The activity conducted today is a small part of our ongoing work to ‘clear’ and address the levels of crime within the Clifton area. “
