Leicestershire House Boarded Up After Drug Raid

0:00It's April 30th. This is Lester News today, driven by AI. Police in Lestershire just boarded up a house on Blackberry Cresson in Melton after reports of serious drug dealing. Earlier this month, officers raided the place and arrested six people, charging three with supply and control drugs, while seizing class A drugs, worth about 7,000 pounds. The local community had enough of the crime and anti-social behavior spilling out from that address, so it was hitting residents hard. After teaming up with Melton Burrow Council, they got a full closure order to shut it down for good. Contractors locked it tight on Friday, April 24th, and police are keeping the pressure on against drug networks, especially those exploiting. Vulnerable folks in county lines operations.
