SIX people have been arrested and drugs, cash and vehicles have been seized after a community intelligence-led police operation in Keighley.

On Monday and Tuesday, officers executed a number of warrants at various locations in the town, in a bid to tackle organised crime.

A "significant amount" of Class A and B drugs were seized in the operation, with one man who was arrested being found with 500 wraps of Class A drugs.

Daniel Coyle, 22, of Moorhouse Avenue, Bradford was subsequently charged and appeared in court yesterday, pleading guilty to possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.

He will next appear at Bradford Crown Court on 5 May.

In the two-day operation, a further five people were arrested, while five vehicles, up to £10,000 in cash, a can of CS spray and a knuckle duster were also seized.

Detective Chief Inspector Andy Farrell, of Bradford District Police, said: “Operations such as this are incredibly important for the local community, and the teams have been working tirelessly on planning it.

"We hope that the local residents and businesses of Keighley feel reassured and confident in our efforts to tackle criminality and keep them safe.

“We remain committed to doing everything in our power to ensure the safety of all people who live, work and visit Bradford, and to target those individuals who are involved in drug dealing and organised crime.

“This positive action and results were led by intelligence and information we received from the local communities, we have used all the information provided and this has been our direct response.

"I cannot stress how vital some intelligence we receive is, and I would continue to encourage local communities to come forward with any concerns or issues.”
