Men from Lichfield and Burntwood have been arrested over drug offences.

They were held as part of a joint operation between Staffordshire Police and West Midlands Police in the early hours of this morning (28th October).

Officers stopped a black Vauxhall Astra at 12.30am on Cartersfield Lane in Walsall. Suspected class B drugs, mobile phones and cash were seized.

Properties in Lichfield and Burntwood were then searched, with police seizing more suspected class B drugs, cash, mobile phones and a gas cannister.

A 20-year-old man from Burntwood and a 27-year-old man from Lichfield have been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class B drugs.

PC Alex Clayton-Tang said:
