A QUANTITY of what is believed to be Class A and Class B drugs have been seized and two arrests made following a police operation in Tresillian near Truro.

The Misuse of Drugs Act Warrants were executed with Truro Neighbourhood Police Team at two properties on Thursday, August 27.

A third property was also searched as a result of enquiries at the scene. The man and woman arrested on Thursday have since been released on bail pending further enquiries.

Neighbourhood team leader, Sergeant Dave Pearce, said: “Drugs can cause so much harm in our communities, so it’s positive that we’ve been able to remove suspected illegal substances from the streets.

“We would like to thank the local community for supporting our local officers and we would encourage anyone with concerns around drug supply in their area to report the Force website or via Crimestoppers.

“No matter how small you may think your information is, it might just be the bit of evidence we need to secure a warrant and make arrests.”

The Truro neighbourhood team were assisted by Plymouth and West Cornwall Neighbourhood Support Teams, the Professional Development unit and dog section.

Anyone who has information for police about drug issues in the community call the non-emergency 101 number or report via the Devon and Cornwall Police website.

Anyone who wishes to remain anonymous can report information to independent charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555111 or on the website.
