A house in Enfield has been targeted as part of a gang crackdown in north-east London.
Police swooped at the home in Durants Road, Enfield, one of eleven in Enfield, Leyton, Walthamstow and Chingford raided at dawn this morning.
A total of thirteen people, two women and eleven men, were arrested for drug offences including conspiracy to supply crack cocaine and heroin.
All were taken to an east London police station where they remain in custody.
Temporary Chief Superintendent Jo Chinn, Borough Commander for Waltham Forest, said: "Drug dealing and the violence that comes with it blights communities, creating a culture of fear for those living and working in the area.
"Taking drug dealers and drugs off our streets should go a long way to improving the lives of everyone living and working in the area."
