"Hopefully this operation provides the local community with the reassurance that we act on their concerns and we will continue to use every tactic at our disposal to remove these illegal substances from our streets.

"We will continue to work to disrupt the illegal and harmful supply of drugs in our communities.

"We depend on the continued support from members of the public, who have a vital role to play in reporting information to us.

"I would encourage anyone with information or concerns about drugs within the local community to contact us on 101 or alternatively, Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111."
