Drug dealers are having to change the way they operate because of social distancing and lockdown measures, police say.
Det Supt Mike Allen, from Nottinghamshire Police's serious and organised crime unit, said the force's statistics on drug offences "have remained consistent", despite restrictions in place to ensure people stay at home during the coronavirus pandemic.
He said officers were "constantly reviewing" ways to deal with drug crime, and asked for members of the public to report any suspicious activity.
