Man, 64, arrested after drugs worth £1,800 seized
A 64-year-old man has been arrested in a Devon town after nearly £2,000 worth of drugs were seized by police.
It comes after Devon and Cornwall Police conducted a proactive warrant in November at an address in Dartmouth.
Attending officers seized about £1,800 worth of suspected class A and B drugs from a property, as well as an e-bike.
The suspect is currently on bail while inquiries are ongoing.
PC Matt Edworthy, who supported the warrant, said: "This has been a positive result for our community.
"We've been able to remove an amount of suspected drugs from our streets to disrupt the distribution of these illegal substances."
Insp Mark Stevens, who heads up the neighbourhood police teams across the South Hams area, said: "I hope this demonstrates that we are listening to reports from members of the public and taking action.
"The information we receive from the community is a vital part in helping us to achieve results like these."
