A woman has been arrested on suspicion of supplying cannabis following a drugs raid in Bridgnorth.
Police forced their way into the home on Queens Road after getting a warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act.
A woman was arrested on suspicion of possessing cannabis with intent to supply. Items of suspected drugs paraphernalia were also seized together with a quantity of cash.
The woman was taken to Shrewsbury police station and later bailed pending further inquiries.
Constable Simon Northcott, who organised Friday’s raid, said: “We are receiving tremendous support from the public.
“Their help and the information they provide, plays a big part in all our investigations.
“I would urge anyone in the area who is aware of drug activity or any other form of criminality, to contact me or my colleagues at Bridgnorth police.”
The previous Friday, three people – two men and a woman – were arrested when officers carried out a series of raids.
More than 30 officers, including dog handling teams, are involved in Operation Artic which targets drug dealers and users, alcohol-related crime and anti-social behaviour in Bridgnorth and the surrounding districts.
Suspected Class A and Class B drugs were seized from raids on homes in Bridgnorth and Broseley.
