A 33-year-old man from Waltham Cross was arrested and taken to custody. He has since been released under investigation.

PC Theresa Funes-Walker from the Broxbourne SNT said: “Our work to target those suspected of being involved in the supply of drugs continues.

“We know drugs can have a significant impact on local communities as they often cause more violent and acquisitive crime, so if you suspect drug crime in your neighbourhood, I’d urge you to report it to police so we can take appropriate action.”
