Three people have been arrested in connection with drug dealing and a large knife has been seized from a property in Stevenage.

Officers from the town’s Scorpion team and the Safer Neighbourhood Team were acting on local intelligence when they attended a home in The Glebe on Friday.

They arrested three people – a 18-year-old man, a 19-year-old man and a 47-year-old woman - on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs and possession of a prohibited weapon.
