THREE people have been arrested, drugs seized and a knife has been discovered as part of a day of action in Rock Ferry.

Bebington's local policing team held the day of action on Wednesday, November 13 to make the community a safer place to be.

There were three arrests including a male driver who was found to be in possession of controlled drugs following a search of a car.

Officers also conducted a misuse of drugs act warrant on a house in St Catherine's Gardens and arrested a man and woman for drug supply offences.

A large amount of suspected amphetamines were seized along with cannabis, cocaine, cash and mobile phones.
