The police have arrested four men after executing an intelligence‑led operation targeting suspected drug dealing and drug use at vacant flats in Corfe Tower.
The operation took place in the early hours of Thursday 6 November when Dedicated Ward Officers PC Naja and PC Cooper from the South Acton Safer Neighbourhood Team, supported by Southfields officers PC Dale and PC Atherley and Emergency Response and Patrol Teams, carried out patrols in response to information about drug‑related activity.
Officers identified two motorbikes believed to be linked to suspected dealers and moved to investigate a known problem flat. With support from Emergency Response and Patrol Team officers, they gained entry to the address and found strong evidence of drug use and supply. Four males who were inside the flat were arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class B drugs.
Further searches were authorised under Section 18 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act and were carried out at several associated addresses and vehicles. Multiple exhibits connected to the investigation were recovered during those searches. Officers worked through the night to secure evidence and progress enquiries, and police praised the operation as the result of effective teamwork between the Safer Neighbourhood Team and response units.
