Officers discovered Class A drugs, believed to be heroin, inside a man’s sock and mobile phones were also seized by patrols.

Two men, one aged 41 from Whitstable, and the other, aged 30, from Greater London, were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of Class A drugs.

The search of a home that day uncovered cannabis and a small amount of cash until police dog Roxy sniffed out the notes that were being stored inside the radiator.

Officers from the county lines and gangs team are investigating the incident and both men have been released on police bail until July 20.
