Three arrested following warrants in Macclesfield

Three people have been arrested on suspicion of drugs offences after officers in Macclesfield conducted several warrants in the town.

At around 6.30am on Friday 4th April, officers in Macclesfield conducted a warrant at an address on Cedar Grove.

Inside the address, officers located a quantity of cannabis, cocaine and drug paraphernalia.

Also found in the address was a 23-year-old man and a 49-year-old man, who were subsequently arrested at the scene on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A and B drugs (cocaine and cannabis).

The pair have since been released under investigation.

Following the warrant on Cedar Grove, officers conducted a second strike at an address on Manor Park, Knutsford, at around 7.12am.

Here, officers located a 23-year-old man, who was also arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs.

He has since been released under investigation.

Chief Inspector for Macclesfield, Zoe Bowden, said:

“Our officers take an evidence-based proactive approach, working around the clock to remove harmful and illegal drugs, as well as those intent on supplying them, from Macclesfield’s streets.

“We cannot execute warrants such as these without vital information from members of the local community, so I would encourage anyone with any concerns about drug supply or cultivation in their area to contact their local beat teams or come to us directly via the website or on 101.”
