Around 15 West Mercia Police officers were involved in the warrant, part of Operation Gigawatt. The front and back of the three properties were secured to prevent any drugs being disposed of while PC Glenn Rees and police dog Waffle were instrumental in the search for cannabis. For some police veterans the raid followed a routine with which they were all too familiar but for one, PC Liam Hulbert, it was his first time on a warrant after joining the force as part of a graduate scheme. The big red key crashed through the door of 16A which broke into splinters as shouts of police! echoed through the flat s hallway. Officers ran up a steep, narrow flight of stairs with shouts of alarm and surprise coming from within.
