Hull: Two arrested in Coltman Street warrants

The Op Galaxy team have been out in force again today, tackling the issues that matter most to you.

The officers were joined by the Hull Central Neighbourhood team as they targeted three properties in Coltman Street, Hull.

A number of people had been in touch to raise concerns about the flats, which they suspected were being used for drug related crime.

And, as a result of this morning’s activity, police have arrested a 41-year-old man and 38-year-old woman on suspicion of money laundering and possession of a firearm, as well as seizing two tasers and a quantity of cash. 

Both remain in custody, pending further enquiries.

Community Beat Manager Tim McGowan said: “I’d like to thank the community for their continued support and for getting in touch with us with information to help us carry out targeted operations like we have today.

“We will continue to do all we can to help rid Coltman Street of drug-related crime and antisocial behaviour and your information is vital in helping us to do that.

“If you have any concerns, please get in touch. We will listen and even if we don’t act on what you’ve told us straight away, rest assured that every bit of information we receive helps us to plan our patrols, warrants and other action to target criminals.”

If you have information you believe could assist authorities, please call the non-emergency 101 line or, if you’d rather not give your name, you can call Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

If someone is in immediate danger, always call 999.
