Three people have been arrested in Bath in relation to drugs supply offences.

 A 39 year old man from Bath has been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs whilst a 35 year old woman from Bath has been arrested on suspicion of possession of Class A drugs.

Yesterday (Wednesday 7 August) in Bath city centre at around midday, plain clothes officers observed two individuals suspected to be engaging in drug dealing activity. Officers detained both individuals in which a suspected wrap of heroin was recovered.

A search of an address the arrested man had been observed coming from – a flat in Norfolk Buildings, Bath – located three further individuals inside the flat alongside various items of drugs paraphernalia.

Following a search of the individuals a 55 year old man from Bath was found to be carrying a package of approximately 20 wraps of suspected heroin and crack, and was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A.
