Two men facing drug charges after police raid three properties

Two men have been arrested after early morning raids at three Dundee properties.

Police were seen at two houses on Linfield Street and another on Clepington Road on Thursday.

One neighbour reported seeing three vehicles pull up on Linfield Street and officers enter the homes, which are just a door apart, at the same time.

The woman, who asked not to be named, said: “I was having a smoke when a police van and an unmarked car pulled up.

“Another van pulled up a wee while later, and police got out of all three at the same time and went around the corner towards the houses. That was just after 9am.

“After that, I saw them coming back and forward from the houses.”

Meanwhile, a third raid was ongoing at Clepington Road, with a flat door smashed open around 9am.

Witnesses saw a marked van and unmarked car, and officers entering the block of eight properties.

One nearby neighbour said the block of flats was busy with people coming and going throughout the day and night.

A spokeswoman for the police said: “Officers executed three search warrants at two addresses on Linfield Street and one on Clepington Road on Thursday July 15.

“Two men were arrested and charged in connection with drug offences.”

She added that one of the men was due to appear at Dundee Sheriff Court yesterday and that the second one would appear at a later date.
