Po­lice have seized quan­ti­ties of cannabis, firearms, am­mu­ni­tion and cash dur­ing a drug traf­fick­ing op­er­a­tion in Clax­ton Bay.

Ac­cord­ing to the T&T Po­lice Ser­vice (TTPS), the op­er­a­tion was aimed at dis­man­tling "a so­phis­ti­cat­ed and high­ly or­gan­ised drug net­work" be­ing run by a male sus­pect from the area.

In a re­lease, it said the ex­er­cise was car­ried out be­tween Tues­day and Thurs­day by of­fi­cers of a spe­cial­ist unit of the TTPS, who were as­sist­ed by per­son­nel from the T&T Coast Guard (TTCG) and De­fence Force (TTDF). It was co­or­di­nat­ed by DCP In­tel­li­gence and In­ves­ti­ga­tions Suzette Mar­tin.
