Worcester: So, here’s the scoop. Eight guys got nabbed on the M5 after police stopped two BMWs early Monday morning. They were acting on a tip-off, and it looks like they hit the jackpot.
Officers pulled over a grey BMW X3 near Junction 6 and then caught another grey BMW M3 at Junction 5. Turns out, both cars had cannabis stashed inside, along with a bunch of cash and some mobile phones.
All eight men were arrested on suspicion of dealing drugs. Four of them, aged between 30 and 39, were taken to Worcester Police Station, while the younger four, aged 23 to 29, went to Hereford Police Station. One of the younger guys even got hit with an extra charge for drug and drink driving.
Detective Inspector Dave Knight said it was a solid result for the police, thanks to some good intel. He mentioned that these guys were likely bringing drugs into the area, which is a big problem for the community.
He made it clear that they won’t stand for drug dealing in Worcestershire and will keep acting on tips to catch those involved. It’s all about keeping the community safe, you know?
