A 43-year-old Newport man has been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of heroin after Police raided a house in the town this morning (Friday).
Officers descended on the Mill Street address shortly before 09:00 as part of their ongoing crackdown on the supply of drugs on the Isle of Wight.
An arrest was made as a result of the raid, with the unnamed male being detained on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of heroin and possessing a controlled Class A drug.
A spokesperson for Hampshire Constabulary has said:
”Officers carried out a warrant this morning at an address in Mill Street, Newport.
“A 43-year-old man from Newport was arrested on suspicion of possessing a controlled drug of class A and being concerned in the supply of heroin.
“He remains in custody at this time”.
Great work guys, keep them coming
Nice one!
Keep it up and send em down
Down where? Rehab yes jail no. If they are clean and selling it’s different. People need to educate themselves rather than shouting their uneducated opinions.
Wonderful stuff!
Dope
Pure filth!
Well done again to the Police
If he is guilty the courts need to jail him for a long time. Send out a message that drug dealing is not acceptable. It destroys lives and ruins neighbourhoods. Take him out of circulation.
If you have information on drug dealers then tell the police now. Keep the momentum going and keep the arrests coming.
Drug dealing funds other vile activities to line the pockets of organised crime.
We tried to report a matter at Newport police station, And got told to come after the weekend as nobody was here from the right department or go online. This was by the lady on the desk whom spoke to the desk sergeant, whom seemed total uninterested.
I no they take no notice, I’ve tried loads of times
So when are they going to bust the one on Newport High Street just up from the police station?
Is that where the police go at the end of their shift ???? LOL
Maybe you should head into the station and tell them about it face to face.
Its been reported several times
Heroin?? How nasty. Couldn’t pay me to touch crap like that.
Told all you drug dealers months ago ‘your gonna get busted’. Decent people have had enough of all you drug pushers dealing your shit on the island. Ha ha ha. It’s just a matter of time before the ones that are dealing get a visit. Watch this space!
