A man has been arrested following a Gwent Police drug raid in Bargoed.
Police raided a property on Oak Place at around 7am on Friday January 17, seizing class A and class B drugs.
Weapons, cash, a mobile phone, and drug paraphernalia were also seized during the raid.
Inspector Lysha Thompson, of Gwent Police, said: “Our neighbourhood enforcement team in Bargoed have successfully removed class A drugs from our streets following a search of a house this morning.
“We arrested a 44-year-old man from Bargoed on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A drugs, and possession of an offensive weapon in a private place.
“He remains in police custody at this time for questioning.”
Insp Thompson added: “We will continue to do all we can to gather information on those intending to flood our towns with harmful illegal drugs, and carry out warrants like this morning’s to seize illegal property and protect the public.”
