Acting upon community intelligence, officers from Kendal’s Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) assisted by colleagues from Tactical Support and the Intelligence unit, executed a drugs warrant in Kendal.

Officers forced entry into an address this morning (16 May) and located a man inside as well as a quantity of drugs, suspected to be Class A, worth an estimated £600.

A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs. He remains in police custody for questioning.
