A police dog named Roxy helped find cannabis, cocaine and heroin that was hidden under a mattress during a house search in Ashford.

Last Friday, at around 5pm, officers were patrolling Repton Park after receiving calls about drug dealing in the area.

Two people from London, a man and a woman, were stopped near Lancaster Way and searched.

Patrols found wraps of class A drugs and arrested the man, aged 22, on suspicion of possession with intent to supply.

The woman, aged 34, was also detained on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

Two mobile phones were also seized and a property was then searched in Sir Bernard Paget Avenue at around 10.30pm.

Officers from the Community Policing Team in Ashford were assisted by Police Dog Roxy who sniffed out drugs that were hidden underneath a mattress.

Officers seized cannabis, cocaine, heroin, weighing scales, three knives and two mobile phones.

Four people inside the address, a 33-year-old woman and three men, one aged 22 and the other two aged 27, were also arrested for drug offences.

All six have since been released on bail while inquiries continue.
