At 07:00 this morning (Friday 16 June), Rochdale Neighbourhood Policing Team executed a warrant at South Avenue, Heywood.
Officers conducted a search of the property and seized thousands of pounds of cash, Class A drugs, drugs paraphernalia such as scales with residue on, suspected to be cocaine, unused snap bags, and multiple mobile phones – all consistent with a drugs operation.
A 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A drugs. He remains in police custody for questioning.
