They remain in police custody.

PC Jill Bundock, of Gloucestershire police, said: "We hope today's action is further reassurance to the community that we remain committed to dealing with all those involved in criminal activity in the area.

"One of the ways that members of the public can help keep Gloucestershire safe is by reporting the use or supply of illegal drugs to police by dialling 101. Any information received is taken very seriously and will be acted on where appropriate."
