Widescale police operation leads to Haverhill arrest

A man Haverhill was one of 13 people arrested on the same day as part of a Suffolk-wide police operation to target burglars and those suspected of handling stolen goods.

The 58-year-old was arrested on Tuesday (January 22) on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon, possession of a non-class A drug and handling stolen goods.

He was bailed to return to Bury St Edmunds Police Investigation Centre on Friday, March 22.

The arrest was made as part of Operation Drawbridge, which is aimed at reducing the number of burglaries across the county and increasing the number of crimes being solved with offenders brought to justice.

The day of action aimed to tackle acquisitive crime by carrying out warrants based on intelligence and by arresting outstanding offenders.

Second hand dealerships were also visited to ensure that items were being sold legitimately.
