TWENTY four people were arrested across Huntingdonshire and Fenland in one day as part of a crackdown on theft, drugs, burglary, assault and criminal damage.

The arrests were made across central division on Wednesday (January 20) as senior officers carried out arrest warrants as part of Operation Dexter.

A further 18 people were brought through custody as police responded to incidents.

Arrests were made in St Neots, Huntingdon, St Ives, Wisbech and March.

DCI Ian Tandy said: "It was another successful day and senior officers all commented on how useful it is to be involved at the front end of policing.

"It was great to see the team work between uniformed officers and CID which led to such a large number of arrests."
