COCAINE and cannabis was seized by police during two drugs raids in Chorley.

Warrants were executed at properties on Whittam Road and Silvester Road at around 2pm yesterday.

A snap bag of cocaine was found along with a small quantity of cannabis.

Sgt Ian O’Brien said: “We will not tolerate drug dealing in our community and we will take action against anyone we suspect to be involved in drugs.

“Information from residents is essential in our fight against crime.

"I would urge people to report any suspicious activity to us.”
