POLICE have charged a man and arrested a woman in connection with Class A drugs offences in Southampton

The arrests followed a raid by officers from Hampshire Constabulary on Friday March 5 on in Back of the Walls Street. 

This then led to a raid on an address in Briton Street later the same day with a warrant.
