Man charged with multiple drug offences

A man has been charged with multiple drug offences after we found cocaine, crack and cannabis following a search in Burntwood.

Reece Winter, 26, of Sandwell, has been charged with being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine, possession with intent to supply crack cocaine, cannabis and cocaine and possessing criminal property.

It comes after proactive officers searched an address in the area yesterday (Tuesday 4 March) and found the drugs and £250 in cash.

Winter is due to appear at the North Staffordshire Justice Centre today (Wednesday 5 March).

As part of Operation Target, we have arrested more than 1,000 people suspected of drug and weapon offences since we launched our crackdown in May 2023.

Proactive work is happening every day across Staffordshire to continue taking action.
