A large haul of drugs and cash has been discovered after police executed four warrants in Denbighshire.

Officers searched four locations in the county believed to be connected to the drugs trade.

It led to the arrest of three men, aged 29 and 30, from the Rhyl and Henllan areas on suspicion of being concerned in dealing illegals substances.

Police said what are believed to be class A and B drugs were recovered along with money, while further searches are ongoing.

All those arrested are currently in custody at St Asaph Police Station.

Insp James Keene said: “This is yet another example of the successful work that is being undertaken by Neighbourhood Policing Teams, supported by colleagues from other units within North Wales Police to investigate and pursue those involved in serious and organised criminality.”

“We will continue to pursue those involved in organised and criminal groups that operate in the Denbighshire area and these warrants should serve as a warning to others who are involved in such activity.”

“We want to reassure the community that we are taking positive action. By conducting these warrants our aim is to cause disruption to the trade in illegal drugs across the area and the associated violence.”

He added: “These types of warrants would not be possible without the support and assistance of the local communities.

“I again appeal to anyone with information linked to drugs supply of any kind to make contact with us. We will always treat any information in the upmost confidence.”
