Two men have been arrested after police carried out a raid at a farm.

On Wednesday, September 28, officers from the Humberside Police Rural Task Force executed a warrant at a farm in Haisthorpe, alongside the neighbourhood policing team and Operation Galaxy following a reported theft. Upon entering the property and carrying out a search, two IFOR Williams Trailers were discovered alongside a number of stolen STIHL chainsaws and cutters.

Further searches uncovered a quantity of what are believed to be Class B drugs and a number of weapons including BB guns, crossbows and knives. Two men were arrested on suspicion of possession of drugs and offensive weapons and have been released under investigation whilst we continue with enquiries.
