York police have taken action after getting a tip-off about drug dealing in the city.
This week the Neighbourhood Policing Team in York and North Yorkshire Police operational support unit have executed a drugs warrant in the Woodthorpe area.
The team “acted on information provided by members of the public,” say the force.
Officers searched a property “and a quantity of what is believed to be a Class-B drug was seized”.
A 34-year-old man and a 31-year-old woman were subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a Class-B drug.
They were both interviewed at a York police station and released under investigation.
Acting Inspector Nick Plumb from the York outer Neighbourhood Policing Team said: “This was a successful warrant for the team as it has seen further drugs taken from the streets of York.
“It’s important that if there is an issue that is causing you concern you report it to the police and we will endeavour to act on the information provided.”
If you have any concerns or information about drugs in your community, you can contact North Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
