POLICE raided two more homes in Oxfordshire villages this afternoon as part of an ongoing operation to disrupt the trade in Class-A drugs.

Officers raided a house in Colne Drive, Berinsfield, at 3.50pm and at Meadside, Dorchester, 30 minutes later.

A man in his 20s was arrested on suspicion of possession of class-C drugs at the Meadside address and is in police custody.

The raids were carried out as part of the ongoing Operation Maelstrom, a new operation targeting major crime in south Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse.

Officers also carried out two raids in Benson and Brightwell-cum-Sotwell, near Wallingford, last Friday and a home in Warborough earlier in the month.
