Police said a quantity of suspected class A drugs was recovered along with cash. Both have been bailed with conditions whilst enquiries continue.
Hastings Police said officers have been looking to reduce the harm of drugs in the local community, disrupting county lines and organised crime groups, some of which exploit children.
A spokesman added: "There is no denying the associated crime and problems that drug supply brings to society, and our work in this area occurs all year round.
"Even during these exceptional times, we want to remind you that we continue to carry out our duties and respond to all crimes."
