and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
We will no longer stand for this kind of behaviour in Doncaster and that is why for the past 18 months officers from the city and across the wider force have been working hard to target drug dealers and bring them to justice.
The lengthy operation has been no mean feat and as a result of months of perseverance, hard work and scrupulous intelligence gathering, we are now in a position to reveal the outcomes of our efforts so far.

These figures are testament to the tenacity of every single member of staff involved in this operation.
These drug dealers thought they were untouchable and above the law, but that couldn't be further from the truth and we know that this operation is just the start for us.
It has had a massive impact on the supply of drugs in Doncaster, with major drugs lines disrupted and suppliers wiped out by being put behind bars where they belong.

We are confident we can build on this success, secure further criminal charges and bring even more drug dealers to justice thanks to the intelligence we have gathered and the significant progress we have already made.
We will not rest on our laurels and the public can be assured that we will build on the momentum this operation has given us to keep our communities safe and wipe drugs off our streets.
