community, our Neighbourhood Officers executed the warrant on Heather Close,
Ainsdale. Once inside the property our Officers carried out a full search of the
house and found a large quantity of what is suspected to be cannabis and a large
amount of money. A short time later a 30 year old man, from Southport, was

unfit. He has been bailed pending further enquiries."
Sefton Neighbourhood Inspector Jim Atherton said:- "Officers carried out a
search warrant at an address yesterday evening following information received
from the local community. This has led to us finding a quantity of drugs and
taking them off the streets. The information we are given by our communities is
integral to us keeping Merseyside safe. If you think someone on your street is
involved in the supply of controlled drugs then please ring us. This recovery
just goes to show we do take information from the public very seriously and we
will act on it. I would like to reassure the public that we will be relentless
in our pursuit of offenders and of people who think they can profit from the
misery of others."
