Man and woman arrested over suspected drug dealing in Leominster

A man and a woman have been arrested on suspicion of suspected drug dealing after being stopped by police in Leominster in the early hours of this morning (Friday 29 August).

Officers in a marked car approached a vehicle they spotted entering the Co-op car park that had parked up and switched its lights off around 1.20am. 

Inside the vehicle they found around £440 cash and drug dealing paraphernalia. A further search of a property in the town associated with the car using section 18 powers found an excessive number of needles at the address.

A man and a woman, both in their 40s, were arrested on being concerned in the supply of illegal drugs and have been released on bail pending further enquiries into the investigation.
