North Yorkshire Police seize drugs and weapons from property in Harrogate after call from public over distressed dog
North Yorkshire Police have seized drugs and a number of weapons following a search at a property in Harrogate last week.
Police received a call from a member of the public last week (April 13) who was concerned for the welfare of a dog at a property in Starbeck.
Officers attended and on arrival they detected a strong smell of cannabis.
A search took place and officers uncovered a large kukri style knife and a telescopic baton, along with a large bag of what is suspected to be Class-B drugs, scales and several mobile phones.
A 19-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession of offensive weapon in a private place, causing unnecessary suffering to an animal and possession with an intent to supply a Class-B drug.
He was interviewed and has since been released under investigation.
