Eleven people have been released on bail following a series of drug raids in Bradford and Leeds.

Ten people were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply a Class A drug, and one man was detained on suspicion of a public order.
The raids were carried out under an initiative called Dob in a Dealer.
Warrants were executed in Heaton, Clayton, Bradford Moor, Great Horton, Thornbury area of Bradford, Lawkhome in Keighley and the Oakwood area of Leeds.

If we all play our part now, we can make it very hard for anyone to deal in drugs in West Yorkshire

Det Ch Insp John Gilbody of the Drug and Organised Crime Division said, "The drug squad deals with complex drug networks, which means gathering evidence can be a timely process.
"But I can assure callers that it's only a matter of time before we're down your street. "
He added "Drugs affect all of society, and if we don't take action we are allowing that to happen. Let's not sit back and think it's someone else's problem.
"If we all play our part now, we can make it very hard for anyone to deal in drugs in West Yorkshire."
