POLICE are warning drug users in Worcester about heroin being sold on the streets.

Officers are concerned about the strength of heroin being distributed after a recent forensic test on a sample of the drug showed there was no actual heroin present.

The sample was in fact a sedative.

Anyone with any information about the supply of drugs should contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or Worcester police on 08457 444 888.
