Patrolling officers have arrested a suspected drug dealer in Greenhithe.

Police were in the area on Tuesday 19 November 2024 when they saw two vehicles parked in Winston Close, Stone.

As they entered the road one of the vehicles, a light Nissan Note, proceeded to drive out of the close and headed in the direction of Greenhithe.

Police followed the vehicle and requested it to stop in Park Terrace, Greenhithe, at around 7.50pm.

Officers then searched the vehicle and the driver, a 21 year old man from Maidstone, was arrested on suspicion of driving and drug offences.

During the search officers found more than £200 in cash, two mobile phones, empty deal bags and three sim cards. He was also found to not have a driving licence or insurance.

The suspect was arrested and has since been bailed until Friday 20 December while further enquiries are made.
