TWO arrests have been made for drugs and weapons offences as police swooped on a McDonald's drive-thru this morning.

The men were stopped at the McDonald's drive-thru in Blackpole Retail Park, Blackpole, Worcester.

The drive-thru had to be closed temporarily while drugs were seized and a large knife.

The sting was part of a targeted operation to sever the flow of drugs and weapons into Worcester and put suspected County Lines dealers out of business.

A sniffer dog called Alfie found the suspected class A drugs.
