Arrests over organised dog fighting
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.
