A man has been charged with crack cocaine and heroin supply offences after a police raid of a property in St Paul's.

The neighbourhood team seized dozens of wraps of drugs as well as cash and a number of mobile phones yesterday morning as part of their work to tackle anti social behaviour.

31 year old Junior Angus from Argyle Road is set to appear before magistrates today also charged with possessing cocaine.

Neighbourhood Inspector Chris Green said: "People living and working in St Paul's are asking us to put a stop to drug dealing and the crime and anti-social behaviour that come with it.

"As well as tackling those suspected of supplying drugs, we work to prevent young people from being exploited by criminals through referrals to community and partner agencies offering positive opportunities and chances to leave crime behind."
