A 40-year-old man from Warrington was one of two arrested today by detectives from the Serious Organised Crime Unit (SOCU) in a crackdown on the supply of Class A drugs.
The other arrested was a 31-year-old man from Altrincham – and both were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply cocaine and are currently in custody assisting police with their enquiries.
Today’s arrests are part of Cheshire Police’s ongoing commitment and dedication to disrupt organised crime groups from supplying Class A drugs.
Detective Chief Inspector Mike Evans, from SOCU, said: “The arrests made this morning come as part of our continued fight against those intent on committing serious and organised crime within our communities.
“Our priority is to protect vulnerable people and help to ensure our communities are a safe place to live and we will not stop until all those involved in criminal activity realise Cheshire is a very difficult place to operate.
“We can’t do this on our own and need the public’s support in coming forward with any information to help disrupt organised crime. If you have any suspicions or information please call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
Earlier, 13 people from Warrington and Widnes were charged in connection with alleged offences.
