Three people from Gloucester have been arrested on suspicion of the supply of Class A drugs after officers from Gloucestershire Constabulary executed raids.

A 32-year-old woman, a 35-year-old man and a 32-year-old man have been arrested following two simultaneous drug warrants at properties in Hucclecote and Churchdown, on Thursday morning.

Officers from the Force Crime Operations, Support Group and police dogs teams of Gloucestershire Constabulary conducted the warrants at the properties after intelligence had been gathered about suspected drug dealing at the addresses.

A quantity of crack cocaine was seized from both addresses as part of the investigation. The value of the drugs seized is not known at this stage.

The people who were arrested were still in custody this afternoon.

Gloucestershire Constabulary’s Serious and Organised Crime Operations Team Twitter account, found at @GlosPolice_SOC, said: “Two simultaneous warrants carried out in Hucclecote and Churchdown this morning on behalf of Tewksbury Police.

“Gratefully assisted by PD Holly from Gloucestershire Police Dogs three arrested for drug supply offences who are awaiting process in custody."
