North Wales Police have sent a clear message to drug dealers “if you want to deal drugs, don’t come to Bangor.”
The Neighbourhood Policing Team have had a “great seven days of crime-fighting in Bangor” according to Detective Inspector Dafydd Curry.
Police have executed six search warrants in Bangor during the last week , which resulted in:
- 2 men arrested for possession with intent to supply Class B drugs.
- One man arrested concerned in supply and recalled to prison.
- Arrest of a man from Merseyside on Bangor mountain for possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and heroin. Cash recovered.
- The following day, a warrant at an address in Park Street- 5 people arrested, large amounts of class A confirmed as crack and heroin.
- A full 3 month closure order granted by the courts on a property on Penchwintan Road Bangor
- British Transport Police arrest of a local man at Bangor train station for drugs offences and recalled to prison.
- Presentation to Youth Justice service on what county lines is, the signs and how they can identify vulnerable people and report to us.
Finally, a huge thanks for the positive response to our social media updates. We’ve had equally great verbal feedback from councillors and residents.
DS Dafydd Curry said: “The message is clear – if you want to deal drugs, don’t come to Bangor. We’ll take your supply, your cash, and we’ll also take your liberty.
“We continue to rely on the information our residents give us. Keep it coming and we will do the rest!”.
