Five individuals have been arrested in Sant Martí, Barcelona, following a joint anti-drug operation by the Guàrdia Urbana and the Mossos d'Esquadra. The action, which included three searches, has dismantled a drug sales point in the city, according to officials.

The operation combined resources from both local and regional police forces to target drug trafficking. The arrests and searches were carried out as part of ongoing efforts to combat the illegal sale of narcotics within Barcelona's neighbourhoods.

Police Collaboration Against Drug Sales

This collaborative effort between the Guàrdia Urbana, Barcelona's municipal police, and the Mossos d'Esquadra, Catalonia's autonomous police force, highlights a coordinated approach to public safety. Such joint operations are common in addressing organised crime and drug distribution networks across Catalonia.

The authorities have not yet released further details regarding the specific substances seized or the identities of those arrested. Investigations are expected to continue as police work to identify any broader networks connected to the dismantled sales point.
