“Please report any issues or suspicious behaviour to us online or via 101.
“Always dial 999 in an emergency.”
How is this news? Happens most days in Brighton.
And that apathy itself is a concern.
Would be news if they actually got locked up for dealing, regardless how much they were caught with dealing is dealing.
Good that the police are taking this seriously.
Wow, the police actually arrested 2 drug dealers! Usually they just ignore them. Wonder why they did something this time?.
Only two!? 😒
