Over 20 people jailed for 57 years after 18-month operation targeting Doncaster drug dealers

Over 20 people have been jailed for a combined total of 57 years as part of an intensive 18-month operation targeting drug dealers and county lines in Doncaster.
Since May 2023, more than 100 people have been arrested on suspicion of supplying drugs in the city, with significant amounts of heroin and cocaine seized and destroyed by our officers.
As part of a city-wide crackdown and following months of careful planning, officers have been executing drugs warrants at addresses in Doncaster and arresting wanted individuals linked to the supply of drugs.
With support from the Yorkshire and Humber Regional Organised Crime Unit (YHROCU), the operation has seen major drug lines disrupted, with 21 people sent to prison so far.
In this video, Superintendent Pete Thorp talks about the operation and the significance of the results achieved so far.
