THREE people have been arrested and drugs seized after police stopped a vehicle in Rugby.

Officers were on patrol on Tuesday (August 4) when they received a tip off to suggest a vehicle was travelling from Rugby to Coventry to collect drugs in a suspected county lines drug deal.

The vehicle was stopped at around 2pm on the A45 and they arrested a 22-year-old man from Coventry, a 37-year-old man from Coventry and a 65-year-old woman Rugby on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of a controlled drug.

A quantity of Class A drugs and cannabis was also seized. The three arrested have all been released on police bail.




Following the arrests, officers searched a property on Windsor Street in Coventry, where a significant quantity of Class A drugs, believed to be heroin, was also seized.

Anyone with any information concerning suspected drug dealing in their area is asked to report it by calling 101 or calling 0800 555 111 to speak to Crimestoppers anonymously.
