FOUR men have been arrested and class A drugs with a street value of £9,000 seized after police swooped on houses in Bolton.
Officers from Bolton's Organised Crime Unit raided the Glendale Guest house in Bradford Street, The Haulgh, at 8.30am yesterday and recovered £4,000 of drugs, believed to be crack cocaine and heroin.
Three men, aged 49, 29 and 23 were arrested on suspicion of possessing class A drugs with intent to supply and have been bailed until November pending further inquiries.
Another man, aged 36, was arrested in a separate incident when officers carried out another drugs warrant in Woodgate Street, Great Lever.
About £5,000 of crack cocaine, heroin and cannabis was recovered.
The 36-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of possession of a class A drug with intent to supply and was being interviewed by police last night.
Det Insp Stuart Wilkinson, of Bolton CID, said: “This has been the second good result that we have had in the past two days, with almost £10,000 worth of drugs now seized and taken off the streets.”
