Both homes were searched by officers and a sniffer dog.

Sgt Carol Fullerton said: “We had information from members of the public, and intelligence gathered by officers, that certainly lead to these warrants.

“The two properties are in the process of being searched.

“For us the important thing is the quality of life of the neighbours and the wider community. We want the message to get out to those dealing drugs that we will be coming after them too.”
