Three held in drug raids

Three men were arrested by armed police yesterday in raids on three properties in Grosvenor Terrace, Bootham, York, as part of a purge on drug dealing.

More than a dozen cannabis plants were seized along with what it is believed to be prepared cannabis and amphetamines.

A 30-year-old man has been charged with possession and bailed.

A man aged 57 and another aged 44 were last night in police custody on suspicion of drug offences.
