Two in custody following search of Crumlin property

Officers tackling serious and organised crime in Gwent made two arrests, seized drugs, cash, phones and more during a warrant in Crumlin this morning.

Two Crumlin residents await questioning following a drugs raid at a residential property earlier today.

This morning, detectives from our (west) serious and organised crime team joined Blackwood’s neighbourhood policing team in searching a property in Crumlin.

During the warrant, officers arrested a 32-year-old man on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class-A drugs and possession of criminal property, while a 40-year-old woman was also arrested on suspicion of the same offences.

Officer in the case, DC Jasmin Power, said:

“During our search, we seized a quantity of class-A drugs, cash, weighing scales and mobile phones.
