TWO men from Warrington accused of being part of a gang who flooded the town with cocaine have been charged with drug dealing offences.

Andrew Daniels, from Orford, and Callum Voos, from Birchwood, have been charged with conspiracy to supply cocaine after being arrested by police on Halloween and Bonfire Night respectively.

In total, Cheshire Police’s serious organised crime unit made seven arrests over the course of a week as part of an ongoing investigation into a cocaine ring operating in Warrington.

On Wednesday, October 31, 40-year-old Daniels, of Laira Street, was arrested and has since been charged with conspiracy to supply cocaine.

A 31-year-old man from Manchester who was arrested on the same day on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class A drugs has been released under investigation.

Then on Monday, November 5, two 19-year-old men were arrested in Warrington on suspicion of conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

Voos, of Strawberry Close, has since been charged with conspiracy to supply cocaine while the other teen has been released under investigation.

Dale Redrode, a 29-year-old man from Liverpool, was also arrested on that date and has now been charged with conspiracy to supply cocaine.

Two men were then arrested during a raid in Sussex on Thursday, November 8.

Jordan Reid, aged 26 and of Horsham, and 25-year-old Ryan Quinell, of Horley, have subsequently been charged with conspiracy to supply class A drugs.

Daniels is due to appear before Warrington Magistrates Court on Thursday, December 6, and has been held on remand until that date.

Voos, Redrode, Reid and Quinell are scheduled to appear before the same court on Tuesday, December 11.

These latest arrests follow a series of raids in September, when 11 homes in Warrington raided by police.

More than £140,000 worth of class A drugs was found in the properties, with £20,000 in cash also seized from a house in Cumbria.

Five vehicles and a motorbike were also recovered from addresses in Warrington and Widnes.
