Arrests following drugs warrant in Barrow

At around 12.30pm today, police officers from Barrow conducted a search warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act at a property on Church Street in the town.
 
As a result, officers arrested a 16 year old local male and an 18 year old man from Barrow on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance. A quantity of what police suspect to be cannabis was also seized. The males are currently in police custody helping officers with their enquiries.
 
The search warrant was conducted as part of police efforts to combat drug-related anti-social behaviour in Barrow after local people raised concerns to police during recent Safer Stronger Community Meetings.
