CLASS A drugs have been seized by police in a raid on a home in Nuneaton.

Crack cocaine and heroin worth more than £1,000 were found in a property on Wednesday afternoon.

Three people have arrested following the been raid on a home in Queens Road.

Officers from the Offender Management Unit (OMU) swooped on the property and seized crack cocaine with an estimated street value of £1,160 and heroin to the street value of £580.

A 28-year-old man was arrested within the property along with a 40-year-old woman. The woman was later released under investigat­ion.

Following an interview and consultati­on with the CPS, a 28-year-old man from Birmingham, was charged with possession with intent to supply heroin and crack cocaine and remanded into custody.

The raid came as a result of an incident earlier in the day when OMU officers were on patrol in the Alexandra Street area of Nuneaton.

They observed what they sus- pected to be a drug deal taking place between a man and the occupants inside a vehicle.

A 41-year-old man arrested at the scene on suspicion of supplying class A drugs. He was later bailed.

A 30-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman were arrested for possession of class A drugs. The man was released with no further action and the female was cautioned for possession.
