A WOMAN has been arrested on suspicion of drugs offences following a raid on a house today.

The 52-year-old woman was arrested earlier when officers from the Kendray Neighbourhood team executed a warrant at a property on Worsley Close.

They were acting on intelligence from the local community who suspected that the address was used for drug dealing.

Officers found a quantity of the former legal high known as spice in the property and equipment believed to be used for selling drugs.

The woman was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply. She remains in police custody.

Sgt Darrell Needham, said: “Although sometimes it may seem that we do not act upon intelligence given to us straight away, we are.

“We are stronger with our communities and I would like to thank those who take the time to help us keep our streets safe.”
