Four people were arrested at Northstead Flats on suspicion of drug-related offences on Saturday.

In a significant operation on Saturday, August 2, 2025, four adults were arrested at Northstead Flats on suspicion of drug-related offences. The arrests come amid ongoing efforts by local authorities to combat drug crime in the area.

The individuals, three men aged 49, 23, and 20, along with a 42-year-old woman, all residents of Scarborough, were taken into custody for being concerned in the supply of Class B drugs and possession with intent to supply a Class B drug. Following a thorough search of the premises, police seized a quantity of drugs and a large knife.

The arrested individuals have been released on bail while the investigation continues, with authorities emphasising the importance of community involvement in tackling crime. A spokesperson from North Yorkshire Police stated,

“We are working with our communities, which is one of the best ways that we can cut crime and keep people safe.”

Residents are encouraged to report any information related to this investigation or other drug-related activities. Information can be provided anonymously through Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111, or directly to the police by calling 101 and quoting reference number 12250143608.
