A man has been charged following three simultaneous warrants in Porthleven.

Officers from the Falmouth and Helston Neighbourhood Team, the Neighbourhood Support Team (NST) and Force Support Group (FSG) attended three properties on the morning of Wednesday 18 February.

Doors to the properties were cut with drugs and cash located.

A social housing provider was made aware of the warrants, and as the warrants were successful, the cost of repair sits with the tenants.

Dene Tregidgo, 34, of Trevisker Drive, Porthleven, has been charged with possession with intent to supply a Class A drug, possession of a Class B drug, being concerned in the supply of cocaine and being concerned in the supply of cannabis.

He appeared at Truro Magistrates’ Court on 19 February where he entered guilty pleas.

Tregidgo entered guilty pleas and was bailed ahead of sentencing in March.

A woman in her 40s, also from Porthleven, was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a Class A drug and a money laundering offence. She has been released on police bail.
