A MAN has been arrested following a raid at a home in North Yorkshire.
The county’s police force raided a property in Scarborough on Saturday morning (October 5).
A force spokesman said: “‘Police with taser!’ is not the call you want to be woken up with at 8:55am on a Saturday morning. However, this was the case for a 43-year-old Scarborough man this weekend, as officers from Scarborough and Eastfield’s neighbourhood policing teams bashed their way in to his address.
“Executing a warrant at an address in the town, officers made a swift arrest of the suspect in relation to drug offences.”
The man is currently in custody as the investigation is ongoing.
Coast Command Neighbourhood Chief Inspector Lucy McNeill said: “Community intelligence is key in obtaining our warrants. I would like to thank our residents for providing information.
“We have arrested a suspect, concerned in the supply of Class A drugs. As shown on Saturday morning, we will take robust action. Our communities are talking, we are listening.”
