Arrests Show Police Resolve To Combat Drugs In Redditch

Police arrested three men and a woman on suspicion of possession of class A drugs with intent to supply after four warrants were executed in the Winyates, Matchborough and Lakeside areas of Redditch last week (Tuesday 31 August and Wednesday 1 September).

One of the men was also arrested on suspicion of money laundering.

The warrants were issued as part of an operation to combat the supply of class A drugs in Redditch.

Detective Sergeant Sharon Wallace said: "We hope these arrests will show that we take combating drug crime very seriously in Redditch.

"We are urging anyone with information about suspected drug production or dealing within their local community to contact West Mercia Police as soon as they can on 0300 333 3000 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."

The four people arrested have been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
