TWO men have been arrested in a dramatic swoop by officers on the southbound slip-road of junction six of the M5.
The slip-road has now fully reopened following its closure last night (Monday), after the pair were arrested for drug offences.
Police stopped a vehicle at 6.20pm yesterday evening at the junction, where a 25 year-old man from Liverpool was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A drugs and drug driving.
A 31 year-old man from Liverpool, was also arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class B drugs.
