Police raided a house in Oxford at dawn today and arrested two people for drugs offences.

About 20 police officers and dogs trained to search out drugs burst into a house in Cavendish Drive, Marston, shortly after 6am.

A 27-year-old man and a 15-year-old boy were arrested on suspicion of possessing class-A and class-C drugs and are being questioned at St Aldates Police Station.

Officers carried out a comprehensive search of the semi-detached house and found a small amount of class-A and class-C drugs.

The raid was carried out as part of Operation Falcon, an ongoing operation to target drug users and dealers.

PC Jon Shaw said: "The Marston and Northway Neighbourhood Team has been receiving information from the local community about drug-related issues.

"This information has been very useful and without it we would have been able to obtain today's warrant."
