TWO men have been arrested on suspicious of drugs offences after specialist police officers conduct raids at properties in a seaside town.

Essex Police’s North Disruptor Team and Operational Support Group executed warrants at two different addresses in Harwich this morning.

The meticulously planned drugs busts were carried out following a thorough police investigation into the supply of cocaine and cannabis in the area.

As a result of the raids, two men from Harwich were arrested and currently remain in custody while the force’s enquiries continue.

Essex Police have now urged anyone who believes drugs may be being dealt or used within their community to contact them as soon as possible.

A spokesman for the police said: “We carried out warrants at two addresses in Harwich following an investigation into the supply of cocaine and cannabis.

“If you have any information about drugs supply in your communities please report it to us so we can take appropriate action.
