Three men arrested as police seize drugs

Police say they have intercepted £55,000 worth of drugs which were destined for the Island's streets.

The Drug Trafficking Unit made the seizure of Class A and B drugs in East Baldwin, shortly after 6.30pm yesterday.

Two men, a local 23-year-old and a 25-year-old from Merseyside, were arrested and later in the evening officers arrested another local man, aged 26, in Peel.

Detective Sergeant Allan Thompson says it's a sizeable seizure which won't now be peddled on the Island's streets.

He is urging members of the public to contact the Drug Trafficking Unit with any concerns about drug dealing.
