"Around 1,161 phones were seized as part of the raid, the force confirmed today, double the amount of phones initially suspected. The force had originally reported that hundreds were found in the store last week."
"Police procured a warrant after intelligence led them to believe the venue was being used to supply Class B drugs. Bodycam footage of the raid showed a number of armed officers move through the shop towards the back of the store."
