£70k Heroin Hidden In Woods

Wednesday, 17 October 2018 10:33

£70,000 worth of heroin has been found by police hidden in a plastic bowl in a wooded part of St Helier.

Two men – aged 37 and 40- have been arrested.

Police say they have been working with Customs and Immigration on ‘an intelligence-led operation targeting an organised crime group involved in the distribution of Class A drugs’.

Heroin with a street value of £70,000 was found in a round Tupperware box on Monday.

A short time later, officers arrested two men nearby on suspicion of possession and intent to supply illegal substances.

The force says the pair have been bailed while their enquiries continue.
