Police in East Grinstead have been working to curb drugs activity amongst young people in the town centre.
Officers from the East Grinstead Neighbourhood Police Team along with a police drug detection dog, patrolled the town centre on Tuesday 14th April.
The operation was planned following concerns from local businesses and residents, about young people gathering in possession of illegal substances.
Officers targeted fast food chains in the town centre, underground car parks and the recreation areas of Mount Noddy and the King George centre.
A 16-year-old girl was detained for a drugs search and a 17-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of possession of drugs with intent to supply.
