Man arrested at marina, police dog finds ‘drugs’ next day

A MAN was arrested at Milford Haven Marina following an alleged incident involving domestic assault.

Police officers were seen in the area around the docks in large numbers on Tuesday (Oct 20) at around lunch time.

The Herald understands that the male had evaded arrest and ran to the boatyard where police caught up with him.

On Wednesday (Oct 21) police returned to the same area with a sniffer dog and recovered what police believe could be illegal drugs which were found in a plastic bag.

The police will now send off a sample for testing.

A press officer for Dyfed-Powys Police told The Pembrokeshire Herald: “Dyfed Powys Police were investigating an allegation of a domestic assault in which a man made off and was later detained at the Boat Yard, Milford Haven Marina, at around 12.45pm on Tuesday, 20 October.

“During a search of the area officers have recovered items they believe to be controlled substances, with the assistance of the dog section.

“A 29-year-old man was arrested as part of the investigation and has been released under investigation pending forensic examination of the substances seized.”
