Three men have been arrested on suspicion of class A drug conspiracy after we stopped a car on the M42 in Tamworth.
Officers from the road crime team (RCT), supported by proactive officers, pulled the car over at about 4.25pm on Wednesday (29 January) at junction nine. Three men were searched inside.
We found a small amount of cannabis, six mobile phones and £290 in cash.
Three men from Birmingham were arrested:
All three were questioned and released under investigation while our enquiries continue.
We’re continuing to target the organised gangs responsible for drug supply and high harm offences across Staffordshire.
Since we launched our crackdown on these types of crimes in May 2023, we have arrested more than 1,000 people suspected of drug and weapon offences locally.
