“During a recent search, PD Scout alerted to a satchel bag concealed in undergrowth – this bag containing over £2,200 in cash and 97g of cannabis.
“Earlier in the week, five deal-size bags of believed Class A drugs were also recovered after being hidden amongst undergrowth. All have now been taken off the streets of Pentwyn.
“We can, and as shown here, regularly act upon the information provided to us by the public, so please keep it coming and continue to work with us.”
