Police have raided six homes in Dover in a crackdown on drugs.

Three people were arrested, and one has been given a caution.

The raids took place in the St Radigund's, Buckland and the Castle areas of the town, and police say a quantity of class A drugs was seized.

A 33-year-old man and a 38-year-old woman were arrested and released on bail while officers make further enquiries.

A 23-year-old man was formally cautioned for possession of herbal cannabis.

Neighbourhood policing officers and community support officers (PCSOs) are working closely with the community to address concerns they have about drugs.

The police said much of the information that led to these warrants was a direct result of the close relationship and trust that has been built up by neighbourhood officers.

People can pass on any information by calling Kent Crimestoppers by calling with information on 0800 555 111.

Sgt Guy Thompson of the Dover Community Safety Unit said more action was planned for the next few weeks to disrupt drug dealers.
