An alleged crime ring trafficking drugs between Merseyside and North Wales was shattered yesterday after police raids and the arrests of 11 people.
The raids followed a six month long investigation by both North Wales Police and Merseyside Police into a County Lines operation flooding Deeside with crack cocaine and heroin. Seven people were arrested in Wales on Thursday and three in Liverpool on Tuesday.
Two of those arrested in Merseyside have been charged with conspiracy to supply crack and heroin and acquiring or possessing criminal property. Brooke Morgan, 30, of Albany Road, Kensington and Ryan Leonard, 27, of Boaler Street, also in Kensington, are due to make their first appearances in court this morning.
