Officers said the warrant was executed after they received ‘intelligence’ about the activity

A woman has been arrested after drugs were seized during a raid on a property in North Shropshire.

Officers from Wem and Oswestry's Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) carried out the warrant at an address on Lowe Hill Gardens in Wem, this morning - Monday, September 21 - where they discovered a quantity of class B drugs.

A 31-year-old woman was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs.

Police said the woman has been released under investigation while enquiries continue.

PC Jack Harper, from Wem's SNT, said: “We know the impact that drug-related activity can have on our communities, and I hope today’s action provides reassurance to residents that we will act on information we receive.

“This warrant was carried out following intelligence received by officers, and I would encourage the public to continue reporting any concerns or suspicious activity to us. The information you provide helps us build a clearer picture of what is happening in our communities and allows us to take appropriate action.

“We remain committed to tackling the supply of illegal drugs and disrupting those suspected of being involved.”
