Sergeant Johnny Davis-Lyons said: “This warrant was executed in partnership with teams across the force including Daventry and South Northants neighbourhood policing teams and the Special Constabulary.

“I hope it reassures the local community that we are responding to their concerns and remain steadfast in tackling the crime issues in this area.

“Finally, I would appeal to members of the public to keep reporting suspicious behaviour to us or anyone suspected of drug dealing. Community intelligence is vital to our work and the information provided really helps us build a picture of the issues affecting a specific area.”
