More than a dozen police officers have raided two addresses in east Swindon.

Six police vehicles, including two riot vans, were seen headed down Eldene Drive at just after 8am this morning, as they rushed to the warrant address.

They carried out a raid on a property in the Bowleymead area at around 8.30am.

The warrants related to the supply and distribution of drugs in the local area and associated anti-social behaviour from this.

A number of officers attended the properties, where one resident was arrested.

A quantity of what is believed to be Class A and Class B drugs were found and seized by officers.

A 17-year-old male from the local area has been arrested for possession with intent to supply and is currently being held at Gablecross Police Station.

The warrants form part of a proactive approach that has been formulated over recent weeks in response to the drug activity and associated anti-social behaviour in Eldene.
