TWO people are in police custody after a stash of Class A drugs were found during a police raid in Kidderminster.
Officers from the local Safer Neighbourhood Team and County Lines Team carried out a warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act at a property just outside of Kidderminster town centre at lunchtime today (Tuesday, February 2).
A quantity of Class A drugs were seized and two people were arrested and remain in police custody, awaiting questioning.
The raid was the result of information provided to police by members of the public.
David King, West Mercia police inspector for Wyre Forest said: "We have a couple of people in custody so this was a really positive warrant for Kidderminster.
"This was a pre-planned operation carried out by my local policing officers and the County Lines Team.
"As a result of information provided by members of the community, we have taken action.
"I hope this reassures the community that despite everything going on in the world with Covid-19, we're still here to ensure that our streets are safe and to rid our streets of drugs."
