Man charged after Bath drugs raids
Class A and B substances worth almost ÂŁ0.5m were seized
A man's been charged with drugs offences after a series of police raids in Bath.
Officers seized class A and B drugs worth almost half a million pounds as well as seizing an illegally held firearm following the searches on Friday 4th June.
Luke Hale, 30, of Longmead Terrace, Bath has pleaded guilty to drug possession with intent to supply and awaits sentencing.
Nine other arrests were made by Avon and Somerset Police across their region as part of a week of action.
DCI Simon Dewfall, head of Specialist Operations and Surveillance, said, “I’d like to thank all involved in these successful operations to disrupt organised crime and remove harmful drugs and offensive weapons from our communities.
“We continue to encourage members of the public tell us what they know about suspected drug criminality in their community. Each individual report allows us to build an intelligence picture and take positive action where we have evidence to suggest drug related activity is taking place.”
