POLICE arrested four men in drugs raids on Friday.

Humberside Police executed warrants at six properties in Beverley - two in Schofield Avenue, two in Coltman Avenue, one in Wharton Avenue and one at a unit on Beverley Business Park.

A 32-year-old is suspected of money laundering and supplying controlled drugs, a 23-year-old is suspected of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, a 20-year-old is suspected of possession to supply drugs other than Class A and an 18-year-old is suspected of deserting from the Army.

All four remained in custody on Friday, pending further enquiries.

Inspector Phil Hinch said class A drugs and cannabis, stolen property and drug paraphernalia were seized in the raids, and police were now "investigating the wider circumstances and whether these addresses are linked to organised crime groups".
