Two people were arrested after police officers carried out a joint operation at a Cumbrian train station.
One man was arrested for unlawfully being in the UK and another on suspicion of being drunk and disorderly at Oxenholme Railway Station.
Officers from Cumbria Constabulary’s South Lakes Neighbourhood Policing Team and the British Transport Police carried out the joint operation today, May 15.
Officers were also accompanied by passive drugs dogs from Cumbria police dog section and the British Transport Police.
Cumbria police added: “Multiple stop searches were carried out at the location, resulting in three positive searches for cannabis possession, which were dealt with via a community resolution. One small knife was also located and confiscated, with officers issuing a warning to the individual concerned.”
The operation was carried out as part of Cumbria Constabulary’s support for Operation Sceptre – a national, week-long knife crime campaign, which began on Monday.
