Earlier this week a drugs warrant was carried out at an address in Penhill.
Officers from the Community Policing Team response, Neighbourhood Policing Team, Firearms and Dogs section searched the property in Melksham Close and found a number of items including approximately 62 grams of cannabis, 5 grams of suspected Class A drugs and some wraps of unidentified white powder.
An investigation is currently ongoing in relation to possession with the intent to supply.
Local Crime Investigator Lauren Buckingham said: “This was a really good collaboration of a number of departments working together to disrupt drug dealing in Swindon, where an amount of drugs were removed off the streets and out of the community, helping to protect vulnerable drug users.”
Sergeant Annabel Martin said: “The collaborative working between local departments helped achieve a joint aim of delivering a safer community. I urge anybody with any information regarding criminal activity to contact police and feel reassured that we will take action.”
