Ruddington Man Arrested After Cocaine Seizure

A suspect from our village has appeared in court after Nottinghamshire Police found multiple wraps of crack cocaine when they raided a house.

Officers made the discovery when they executed a warrant at a property in Middle Furlong Gardens, The Meadows, Nottingham, on Friday (17th November) at around 2.25pm.

As well as the Class A drugs, it’s reported the officers also found a quantity of cannabis, mobile phones and weighing scales in the kitchen of the address. A man and two women found inside the property were arrested.

A 35-year-old Ruddington resident has now been charged with possession with intent to supply a Class A drug. He appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Monday (20th November) and will next appear at Nottingham Crown Court on 18th December 2023.

Two women, aged 27 and 28, who were arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A and Class B drugs, have been released on bail.

Detective Inspector Chris Berryman, of Nottinghamshire Police, says: “It is always a good result when we can take Class A drugs off the streets as they destroy lives. I’m pleased a suspect has been charged with this very serious offence and hope it provides reassurance to people living in this neighbourhood that the police will take positive action against those suspected to be involved in supplying drugs.”
