Police have arrested two people - including a teenager from Harrogate - after a targeted operation in York over the weekend.
During the operation, officers searched two vehicles, seizing drugs, cash, and mobile phones.
Their efforts didn’t stop there – they conducted searches at multiple addresses in Leeds, uncovering further quantities of drugs, cash, and phones.
Significantly, a safe containing £38,000 in cash, keys to additional vehicles, and two small gold bullion bars were seized.
Officers also seized another vehicle believed to have been used in criminal activity.
A 22-year-old man from Leeds and a 19-year-old woman from Harrogate were arrested in connection with drug-related offences.
The man has been charged, remanded in custody, and is due to appear in court today.
The woman has been released on bail as our investigation continues.
A police spokesperson said:
“A special shoutout goes to Police Dog Molly and her handler.
“PD Molly’s incredible sense of smell led officers to a hidden stash of drugs inside a vehicle.
“She was rewarded with her favourite ball for her excellent work.”

“This operation highlights the dedication and teamwork in tackling organised crime, keeping harmful drugs off our streets, and disrupting those intent on travelling into our county to carry out crime.
“If you have information about suspected criminal activity in your area, please contact us via our website our by calling 101.
