Two arrested after drugs seized

TWO men have been arrested at Warrington in relation to drugs offences after a vehicle was stopped in Kerfoot Street.
A 37-year-old man from Ormskirk and a 20-year-old man from Stockbridge Village were both arrested at the scene on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class-A Drugs.
The 20-year-old was appearing before magistrates at Warrington today.
The second man has been released on police bail pending further enquiries.
Detective Constable Carol McCormick-Priest from Cheshire Police said: “The corrosive effect that drug abuse and associated criminality has on our communities is well known, and we are committed to tackling the problem and targeting those involved.
“Today’s operation reinforces the commitment that the police and partner agencies have in targeting those people that undermine our communities and bring misery to residents through their involvement in organised crime and illegal drugs.
“This sort of behaviour can have a major impact on local communities. It is an issue the force takes extremely seriously and we devote all the resources we can to tracing those responsible and disrupting their behaviour.”
“Information from members of the public is vital in the fight against drug related crime.
“We would urge anyone with any information in relation to drug use and supply in your community to get in touch on 101, or alternatively information can be reported anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
