Two West Sussex men arrested for drugs offences in Brighton
Officers found a large quantity of cannabis in a car
Two men from West Sussex are among three arrested for drugs offences by police in Brighton.
Oficers stopped a Ford Mondeo in Preston Drove at 3.25pm on Saturday as part of their Operation Safety campaign.
A large quantity of cannabis was seized following searches of the vehicle.
The driver, a 41-year-old man from Lancing, failed a roadside breath test for drugs.
He was arrested on suspicion of drug driving and possession of a class B drug with intent to supply.
Two other people with him in the vehicle - a 43-year-old man from Worthing and a 45-year-old man from Hove - were also arrested on suspicion of possession of a Class B drug with intent to supply.
The three men have been released under investigation pending further enquiries.
PS Barrett said:
"We continue to work hard to tackle drug-related harm in our local communities and this is a great example of Neighbourhood Policing Team (NPT) and the Specialist Enforcement Unit (SEU) working together.
"We would urge anyone with information or concerns about drugs in their area to report it to us online or by calling 101."
