Three people were arrested when police officers stopped a car and found drugs yesterday.

Trowbridge officers pulled the vehicle over in Woodrow Road, Melksham, and the car was searched under the Section 24 Misuse of Drugs Act.

During the search, they discovered a large quantity of individual wraps which are suspected to be crack cocaine. Heroin was also located and seized from the vehicle.

All three occupants of the car were arrested on suspicion of Class A drug supply offences, with the driver additionally being arrested for failing a roadside drugs test.

Local police thanked residents for their patience whilst they blocked the road to deal with the stop.
