The moment a drug gang responsible for smuggling millions of pounds-worth of Class As from the north west into Wales was brought down was captured by a police drone.
The sophisticated organised crime group (OCG) modified cars to smuggle large amounts of drugs from Merseyside into North Wales towns. In February last year, a number of raids were carried out at several properties in both locations.
More than 18kg of cocaine; 19kg of amphetamine; and 885 grams of cannabis was seized as part of the operation - with a total estimated street value of around £2m. The movements of those suspected to be involved in the drug supply chain were closely monitored for months prior by North Wales Police as part of Operation Blue Cashel.
