Bremen in drug fever: Police put together major measures against dealers!

in Bremen-Hemelingen, more precisely in the Hastedt district, the police carried out a targeted measure to combat drug trafficking on July 18. Around 2:30 p.m., civilian emergency services controlled a man who behaved suspiciously and had presumably acquired drugs. During the check, the cocaine officials discovered, which was in his possession. But that was not all; A resident who had previously met the person concerned was also targeted by the investigation. During his control, the officials found other drugs in identical packaging and cash that was kept outside of his wallet. In the course of a subsequent apartment search, the Bremen police were able to secure additional evidence, which underlines the comprehensive measures to combat drug trafficking. The police emphasize that the controls in residential areas are continued in order to keep public space safe and to end the narcotics trade sustainably. According to [News today] (https://www.nachrichten-heute.net/141815- Blauchlicht-polpol-polpol-polpro-NR-0469-ZIVILKRARARAFTE-PACHMASTICHER-DROGEN-HASTHASTHREN-HASTEDT.HTML), this is part of a larger strategy to contain the influence of drug crime in Bremen.

A look at the big picture shows that the Bremen police are increasingly making drug crime in recent weeks. An extensive control campaign was carried out in the main train station and Steintorviertel last weekend. This large raid comprised 42 controls and several interventions in street deals. The officials confiscated various drugs such as crack, cocaine, ecstasy and cannabis. A knife and cash also found their way into the evidence. In one case, a 23-year-old was arrested who was illegally in Germany. When he was searched for by his person, the officials came across drugs and a knife. The police initiated several criminal proceedings and expressed a total of 21 references. These measures are part of the steady police commitment to improve security in the particularly criminal hotspots. T-Online reports that the investigation continues in the affected areas and a clear continuation in combating the street crime.

Statistical reality of drug crime

In Germany, Statista emphasizes that the consumption of illegal drugs is not only hazardous to health, but also leads to deeper social problems. In 2023, Germany recorded around 2,230 drugote, with the number of drug deaths in Bremen with just under 5 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

In summary, it turns out that the Bremen police do not remain idle, but actively act against drug crime. Whether in Hastedt or in the center of the city, the officials have been committed to putting on the stopping of the drug scene and ensuring more security among the population.
