Police seize drugs after raids on three properties in Yeadon and Rawdon
Police used a circular saw to force entry into a house this morning (Thursday) during a series of drugs raids.
Officers from West Yorkshire Police's Leeds north-west team carried out three raids on properties in Yeadon and Rawdon.
Each property contained drugs paraphernalia and signs of recent drugs use and/or dealing.
Officers also found a quantity of class B drugs, which will be destroyed.
The team posted on Facebook: "This Morning, 21th January, Officers from your local NPT conducted three intelligence-led drugs raids in the Yeadon & Rawdon area.
"All three properties contained drugs paraphernalia & signs of recent drugs use and/or dealing.
"A quantity of Class-B drugs were also recovered, which will now be destroyed.
As a result of this operation, those drugs will not be finding their way onto the local streets & this sends a clear message: if you are involved in the supply of illegal drugs, you can expect a knock at your door (or in this case, a circular saw)."
