Cash and drugs were seized when police raided houses in the Saltersgill area of Middlesbrough early yesterday.

Class A drugs worth £350 and more than £1,500 in cash were found in neighbouring houses in Hoylake Road and an address in Grove Hill at about 7.30am.

A 21-year-old woman was arrested for possession of crack cocaine with intent to supply, and a 23-year-old with an outstanding warrant from the Watford area was arrested.

The investigation led officers to another address in the Grove Hill area, where a 31-year-old Man was arrested in connection with drug dealing.

The woman and the 31-year-old man were released on police bail while forensic examination of the evidence was carried out.
