A man has been arrested in connection with alleged drug offences in the Suffolk town of Haverhill.

Officers from one of the Suffolk police safer neighbourhood teams stopped a vehicle that "caught their eye" and proceeded to search the occupants.

They found a set of digital scales, some wraps of drugs, a quantity of cash, and an extendable truncheon.

One male was arrested on suspicion of drug offences.

Haverhill Police tweeted about the incident, saying: "After a bit of time off Safer Neighbourhood Team 3 were back on the late shift and hit the ground running.

"Car caught our eye, vehicle was stopped, and occupants searched.

"One male arrested for drug offences: drugs seized, cash seized, phone seized, weapons seized."

An additional tweet from the force thanked the Norfolk and Suffolk police dog team for their assistance in this matter.
