A 24-year-old man has been arrested after police swooped on a house in Bicester and seized suspected heroin and cocaine.

Police stopped and searched a man in the street in Reedmace Road, Bure Park, shortly after 4pm on Monday.

Officers then searched a home in the same street and discovered money and a large amount of class A drugs.

Police arrested a 24-year-old man on suspicion of possessing class A drugs with intent to supply who was bailed until May 23.

Pc Richie Iwanoff said: "This is a significant arrest as we continue to tackle drug dealers in the Bicester area. Another man was remanded earlier this month after being charged with drug offences.

"Drugs and drug dealing will not be tolerated in Bicester and we will continue to pursue our intelligence-led operations.

"We are working closely with our partner agencies to reduce drugs and the associated anti-social behaviour. Positive action will be taken at every opportunity to reduce the supply of drugs in the area.

"I would urge anyone with information about dealing the Reedmace Road area or anywhere else in Bicester to contact me on 0845 8 505 505 or anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555111."
