The result came after detectives cracked a major Carlisle-based crime group.
Cumbria Police’s Serious and Organised Crime Unit smashed the set-up after launching Operation Oberlin as part of the work going on every day to tackle drugs trafficking and supply in the county.
During three separate parts of the operation, investigations by officers led to drugs including cocaine, cannabis and MDMA being seized, along with cash totalling more than £60,000 and items including an imitation firearm, knuckle dusters and Rolex watches worth thousands of pounds.
It led to the dismantling of an organised crime group led by Stephen Dixon, 35, formerly of Blackwell Road, Carlisle, who was orchestrating his criminal enterprise from his prison cell in HMP Northumberland, where he was already serving a sentence for a previous offence.
