A HOUSE was raided in Aylesbury this morning and a teenager was arrested for possession of drugs with intent to supply.
The 19-year-old man was arrested at the property in Somerville Way at 7.45am where they found eight wraps of cannabis with a street value of about £100, along with a large amount of cash and drugs paraphernalia.
The action came after police heard from residents on Prebendal Farm who had identified drug use and dealing as a priority issue at their neighbourhood action group.
PC Chris Fallon, who lead the arrest, said: "All the information provided to the police came from the local community; they enabled this warrant to be carried out and have helped to get drugs off the streets of Aylesbury.
"We rely on community intelligence for raids such as this and we need community help to stamp drugs out of Aylesbury Vale all together."
Anyone with information about drugs should contact police on 08458 505505 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
