The drugs and cash were seized. Two people, a man aged 27 and a 28-year-old woman, were arrested on suspicion of supplying class A drugs.

They remain in custody for questioning.

A North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “The warrants were carried on the back of concerns, information and intelligence that we received from members of the local community.

“Drug dealing causes misery in our communities and we hope local people are reassured that we will proactively pursue and disrupt the activities of anyone involved in this type of offending.

“We’d also like to thank those who brought these issues to our attention. Information like this from our communities is vital in helping us piece together the bigger picture.”

If you have any information about drug dealing in your community then call North Yorkshire Police on 101.
