THREE people have been arrested following a series of drugs raids in Anglesey.

Four properties were raided by officers from North Wales Police on Friday before three people were arrested on suspicion of possessing class A drugs with intent to supply.

The raids were carried out by local officers supported by armed police, dog units, the police intercepto­r team and British Transport Police.

PC Dylan Thomas said: “Today’s operation signifies Anglesey’s policing teams’ commitment to disrupting the supply of class A drugs on the island.

“I would like to thank our colleagues from British Transport Police for their support today, which signifies our continued cooperatio­n and intelligen­ce-sharing.

“I’d also like to thank the local community for their help and patience as we carry out this operation and reassure them that tackling drug supply in our locality remains a priority.”

Separately, a drugs raid was carried out in the Caia Park area of Wrexham on Friday, where police said a “large quantity of controlled drugs” were seized.

They said a male was under investigat­ion over the discovery.

Anyone with informatio­n regarding the production and supply of controlled drugs, or anyone with informatio­n about somebody they believe is involved in organised crime, is asked to contact North Wales Police on 101.

Alternativ­ely, informatio­n can be provided anonymousl­y via Crimestopp­ers on 0800 555 111.
