AN investigation into organised dog fighting has led to two arrests in West Yorkshire and the seizure of two pit bull terriers, a gun and ammunition.
West Yorkshire Police and officers from the RSPCA raided a house in Fairfax Avenue, Drighlington, on Thursday morning as part of an investigation into dangerous dogs and organised dog fighting.
Officers seized two pit bull terriers, a quantity of suspected drugs, pornography, a firearm and ammunition.
A man aged 37 and a woman aged 38 were both arrested on suspicion of possession of a dangerous dog, along with drugs and firearms offences.
The dogs are currently in kennels and both people have since been bailed.
