A tip off from the public has led to the arrest of an alleged drug dealer in Beacon Valley in Mitchells Plain yesterday.

Metro police reacted to a complaint received from a resident, reporting that stolen goods were being sold at a house in Rugby Street in the area.

“The complainant identified the house and the officers searched the house. No stolen goods were found, but cash and drugs were found and one person was arrested,” said spokesperson Nowellen Peterson.

In a statement, Deputy Chief Yolanda Faro said they “will not stop bringing the drug dealers to book”.

She added that although their focus shifted to the beaches, their members will continue with the execution of search warrants and raid suspected drug houses.
