A Chale man has been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of cocaine following a drugs raid this morning (Wednesday).
As part of a pre-planned operation, officers from both the Island and the mainland descended on the village of Chale at around 08:30.
Officers executed a warrant on a terrace property at The Glebe, off Spanners Close,
Police say the drugs raid is part of an ongoing investigation into the supply of Class A drugs on the Isle of Wight.
A man in his 40s, from Chale, has been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of cocaine.
He remains in custody at this time and the investigation continues.
Spaners Close, that said it all, well done to our police…
Excellent job to all involved in finding and arresting this low life drug dealer.
Could more be done to stop the filth getting through the ports? Suppose not, too many different routes and people to check. Though a drugs dog would be very efficient.
Too many drug dealers on this little Island…Lock them up..Kick them off the Island into the Solent..
Good to see the police are being proactive against druggies. We all have to help to clear the island of scum.
It was Chale Green not bloody Chale! If you’re going report something get the facts right!!!
Get rid of the drug dealers then those who use them could come off the drugs because there is no supply
Good in theory, but it is all down to supply and demand,less drugs supply, higher prices,more crime, and they will only be replaced by mainland gangs who will see an opening in the market,
