Executed by the Western Division operations team on Tuesday, the raid revealed clear plastic bags containing dried leaves thought to be marijuana, as well as substances believed to be methamphetamine.

In addition to the drugs, law enforcement officials confiscated mobile phones, syringes, packing materials, and various forms of currency, which are suspected to have been obtained through criminal activities. The 21-year-old, along with three others aged 44, 24, and 18, were taken into custody. The seized drugs have been sent for laboratory analysis as police continue their investigation.

This operation underscores the ongoing efforts by law enforcement to combat drug-related activities within communities. It is a reminder that vigilance and decisive action from law enforcement can help maintain safety and security, promoting a healthier environment for residents. The investigation may serve as a deterrent to future drug-related crimes in the area.
