Class A drugs have been found after a property in Northampton was raided by police officers this morning (January 23).
The flat in Herbert Street was stormed at 8.30am after Northamptonshire Police received intelligence that it could be involved in Class A drug dealing.
Upon entry, a search was conducted of the flat with 45 wraps of suspected Class A drugs being found in the bedroom.
These were seized and a 19-year-old man inside the property was arrested on suspicion of possessing Class A drugs with intent to supply and acquiring/possessing criminal property.
