TWO people have been arrested as part of an investigation into organised dog fighting in Drighlington.
Yesterday morning officers from the Morley Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) and the RSPCA executed a joint search warrant at an address in Fairfax Avenue, Drighlington, as part of an investigation into dangerous dogs and organised dog fighting.

As a result, officers seized two pit bull terriers, a quantity of suspected drugs, pornography, and a firearm and ammunition.

A man aged 37 and a woman aged 38 were both arrested on suspicion of possession of a dangerous dog, along with drugs and firearms offences.

The dogs are currently in kennels and both people have since been bailed.

Enquiries are ongoing.
