Detective Chief Inspector Mike Nally said: “We will not stop in our commitment to tackle county lines drug dealing in towns across the county and continue to have a team dedicated to gathering intelligence and information.

"Where we have enough evidence to apply to the courts for a warrant, we will continue to do so, even during these uncertain times.

“We know drugs cause misery and will continue to do all we can to make sure we stem the supply in our local communities and help make our towns safer.”
