Three held over £60k drugs and stolen trainers probe
Police seized up to £60,000 worth of drugs and 170 pairs of trainers when they raided a property in South Staffordshire.
The haul of cocaine and amphetamines also included clothing and small electrical items. Two men aged 49 and 20 and a 26-year-old woman were also arrested at the property in Coven
Heath on suspicion of possession with intent to supply controlled drugs and handling stolen goods.
The trio all come from the Wolverhampton area and were held in custody for questioning after the police swoop which took place on Friday.
Police said today they had all been bailed until July pending further investigations by officers.
Chief Inspector Donna Gibbs, South Staffordshire Local Policing Team Commander, said the probe was part of a concerted effort to weed out drug dealers in the region.
"We are determined to continue our crackdown on drug supply in our local communities," she said.
"Although the operation is specifically about targeting those involved in drug supply, these criminals may often be linked to serious acquisitive crime including theft, burglary and robbery.
"Information we receive from members of the public is crucial. People with any concerns about drugs, or serious acquisitive crime should contact us immediately."
