A 43-year-old man from Stockbridge Village was arrested
An arrest was made after 'white and brown powder' was found inside a house. Officers went to a property in Stockbridge Village on Wednesday, September 4 at around 11.20am. When police arrived at the property they discovered a large quantity of white and brown powder, suspected to be cocaine and heroin. They also found equipment to grow cannabis in one of the rooms along with paraphernalia commonly used in the supply of drugs.
Huyton Neighbourhood Inspector Jen Murray said: 'This arrest is part of our proactive work to ensure we take offenders supplying drugs off our streets. The dangers posed by cannabis farms and extracting electricity illegally in this manner poses a serious dangerous risk of fire and flooding to residents living nearby, which puts lives at risk, especially when criminals tinker with the wiring and overload plugs.
