South Wales Police tackling drug related crime in Port Talbot carried out two raids in Aberavon on Monday morning (17 October)

Officers carried out two planned warrants, one in Water Street, and the other in Gwyn Terrace.

Two 28-year-old men were arrested and over 400 Cannabis plants were recovered.

Inspector Andy Matthews said: “We know only too well how devastating drug-related crime can be on our communities and that is why we are determined to take action to disrupt those who think the area is a soft target.

“It’s important to remember though that we couldn’t do this proactive work without the support of our communities. You can help by trusting your instincts and making us aware of suspicious activity or concerns you have.

“Your reports help us build a picture of where we need to target our action and by working together, we can help tackle this problem.”
