Fossway, York
A 40-year-old man from York, an 18-year-old woman from Leeds and a 16-year-old male from Leeds were arrested.
They were taken into custody where they remain while further enquiries are carried out.
Sergeant Stuart Henderson, of York Outer Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: “As this warrant operation shows, we work day and night to tackle suspected drugs and weapons offences and keep communities safe.
“That work is paying off. In the past six months, crime in North Yorkshire has reduced by 4.6% overall, with serious violent crime down by almost 6%. We’re also making more arrests.
“We’re here for residents and we’re on their side. We’re also working around the clock to make North Yorkshire a no-go area for criminals.”
The warrant was planned and executed by a number of police teams, including the Firearms Support Unit and York Neighbourhood Policing Team.
