A 14-year-old schoolboy from Queen’s Park has been charged with drug dealing following a police raid in Pimlico yesterday.
The youth, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested after officers stormed the Churchill Gardens estate following a five-month operation targeting suspected drug dealers.
The boy is accused of supplying class A drugs between January 7 and April 15 this year.
He is one of 17 people charged with drug offences and is due to appear before Hammersmith Youth Court today.
