MORE than 20 people have been arrested across north Cumbria in a series of raids by police. Officers also seized drugs with a street value of more than £50,000 across a week of action to address community concerns. Teams of uniformed officers, detectives and staff combined to tackle violent crime and drug offences, executing drug warrants and targeting suspected criminals. Collectively known as Operation Driver, the week began when a 25-year-old man was arrested in Belah after a stop search. Following this, officers conducted a warrant on Briar Bank and seized cocaine, cannabis, a machete and a lock knife. The total value of the drugs in this part of the operation is estimated to be worth about £52,000.
