“Another great spot by our eagle eyed officer. Last week, whilst on patrol a vehicle caught their attention. The driver didn’t want to hang around but we did our best to catch up with him and find out why.

“It transpired that the male had a quantity of cannabis on him along with some nasty looking weapons.

“He was quickly arrested and taken to custody. He has since been released under investigation whilst officers make further enquiries.”
