On Friday, officers in West Cumbria executed a warrant at an address in Cleator Moor and arrested a 45-year-old woman on suspicion of possession of cocaine with intent to supply and a 47-year-old man on suspicion of possession of a class B drug with intent to supply.
The woman was released under investigation.
The man – Simon Gilmour, 47, of Pica – has been charged with possession with intent to supply class A drugs and is due to appear at Carlisle Crown Court on 20 November.
Superintendent Sarah Jones said: “Operation Merlin continues to bring results across the county, with individuals involved in serious criminality and those who believe they do not need to attend court finding officers at their door.
“Many of those we are arresting are all too aware that they are sought by the police. If you are in this position, hand yourself in today before our officers come to your door.”
