Six men have been charged after a series of drugs warrants were executed across the Fylde coast.
Officers from Blackpool and Fleetwood executed six warrants at a number of properties between Monday and Wednesday of last week, after an investigation into alleged cannabis distribution.
In one of the addresses, a large scale distribution set up was found containing up to an estimated £250,000 street value.
Numerous items were seized including cash, phones, designer clothes, watches, laptops, a caravan, and a quad bike.
Detective Inspector Adie Knowles said: "These arrests show that we are dedicated to tackling organised crime on the Fylde coast.
"I hope these charges offer reassurance to local communities that we will continue to target crimes groups that are plaguing communities with illegal drugs."
Operation Warrior is Lancashire Police’s response to tackling serious and organised crime in Lancashire, supported by Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw.
It aims to target the individuals and gangs involved in crime, as well as associated issues such as violence and intimidation, large scale drug supply, exploitation, and fraud, all of which can cause serious harm to local communities.
Lancashire Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw said: "I fully support Op Warrior to crack down on organised crime in Lancashire by targeting gangs and stripping criminals of their cash, cars and other ill-gotten gains.
"The message is clear in Lancashire; organised crime will not be tolerated, and I will continue to work alongside Lancashire Police and ensure they are tackling the gangs responsible, as well as working closely with our partners to prevent young people from getting drawn into criminality in the first place."
