A 17-year-old boy and an 18-year-old man were apprehended after they made off from officers conducting proactive patrols of the area.

The pair are suspected of possessing Class B drugs with intent to supply and possessing offensive weapons.

Two knives and a significant quantity of cannabis were also seized.

Both have subsequently been released on bail while further enquiries take place.
