A FAMILY home in Cricklade was raided last week after a number of reports were received by police surrounding alleged drug activity.

Officers swooped on the property in Hallsfield on the evening of Wednesday, May 3 and executed a drugs warrant.

The property was targeted after the police received enough complaints from neighbours to authorise the search.

A spokesperson for Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade Police said: “Officers entered the premises and found evidence of drug use at the address.

“The father, a 43-yearold male and children, an 18-year-old male and a 16-year-old female, all admitted smoking cannabis for personal use.

“Paraphernalia associated with its use was also found and seized.”

The family’s 44-year-old mother was not suspected of any wrong-doing.

A 19-year-old unrelated male was also found at the address but no arrests were made.
