York drugs supply arrest in latest Clear, Hold, Build activity

North Yorkshire Police are pledging to keep up the pressure on criminals, as they work to improve the quality of life for local people in Clifton.

It follows the arrest and charge of a man for being concerned in the supply of class A drugs.

On the morning of Monday 15 July, North Yorkshire Police officers executed a warrant at a property in the Clifton area of York. A 30-year-old man was arrested and taken to custody. He was charged and appeared in court yesterday.

Sergeant Stuart Henderson said: “We are determined to pursue and disrupt those who commit crime in our city.  I’m particularly grateful for the support of the local community, who have worked with us providing crucial information to support our investigation.”

The arrest is part of ongoing work to deliver the nationally-recognised Clear, Hold, Build project in the Clifton area – aiming to tackle crime and anti-social behavior in partnership, and continue to change Clifton for the better.

Local people have been brought together under the community brand of “Connecting Clifton” to make the area a more prosperous place to live, work and visit. This sees key partners such as North Yorkshire Police, City of York Council and Changing Lives working together with sports clubs, residents, and other members of the community. Children from Clifton Green Primary school designed a logo for the partnership.
