A drugs warrant at a house in Bemerton Heath has led to Class A, B and C drugs being seized.

Salisbury officers along with firearms and dog unit colleagues raided a property in Pinewood Way on Friday (12th Janaury).

The searches followed tip-offs from members of the public about possible drug activity within the premises.

PC Boon from Wiltshire Police said:

"We received multiple reports from concerned members of the public about drug dealing and anti-social behaviour in this area. As a result of the positive warrant, the suspects are being investigated. I hope the community feel their voice is being heard and they are supported and valued.

"I’d like to thank the community for their continued efforts in reporting suspicious incidents and criminal activity in their area. Wiltshire Police have removed drugs off the streets deterring further criminal activity."

We're also encouraged to keep reporting any suspected drug related activity to officers, so they can investigate.

You can do that by calling 101, or 999 if it's an emergency.
