A teenager from Gravesend is amongst 23 people arrested on drugs charges after Kent Police carried out raids across the county. 

The 17-year-old has been charged with 12 counts of supplying class A drugs and six counts of offering to supply class A drugs.

The raids took place last week on Tuesday (May 19), Wednesday and Thursday.

More than 100 officers carried out 20 warrants over three days at addresses in Dover, Deal, Gravesend and London which have resulted in a number of charges.

Another three people arrested have been bailed pending further enquiries.

They are all due to appear at Canterbury Crown Court on June 12.
