As part of an ongoing effort to combat drug-related crime, North Flintshire neighbourhood police team carried out a series of raids in Connah’s Quay earlier today

The operations were specifically targeted at suspected drug offences and county lines activities in the locality.

Information provided by the public played a pivotal role in the operations, aiding the police to safeguard vulnerable individuals from exploitation.

Following the morning’s activities, officers maintained their proactive stance, throughout the day and there will be an increased visible presence in the area today for public reassurance.

Inspector Wes Williams said: “We are committed to staying one step ahead of these criminals, and we will relentlessly pursue anyone who breaks the law and exploits vulnerable people for their own gain.”
“Today’s operation was testament to the information we receive from the public, who assist greatly in tackling this crime that has such a detrimental effect on people’s lives.”
“Anyone with information relating to drugs offences in their area can contact us via the website or by calling 101.
Alternatively, the independent charity Crimestoppers can be contacted anonymously: https://orlo.uk/n5iAf”
