THREE people were arrested after police raided their homes in an operation targeting drug dealers.
Properties in The Runway, Hatfield, and Node Way Gardens in Welwyn were searched.
A woman and two men were charged with supplying or conspiring to sell Class A drugs.
All three appeared before magistrates yesterday and were remanded in custody.
The intelligence-led operation was carried out on Monday by police hoping to tackle the problem of illegal drugs such as crack cocaine and heroin.
Chief inspector Richard Hann said: "Drug use can make lives a misery for neighbours.
"By stopping drug dealers, we are also potentially reducing the number of burglaries, robberies and other offences thereby reducing the number of victims of crime."
