A Gloucestershire Police^[1] sniffer dog has been busy catching criminals in the county. PD Ollie has found drugs in cars in Gloucester and Brockworth over the last week.

It was announced today (June 14) that Ollie helped find an amount of Class A drugs hidden in a car in Gloucester^[2]. PD Ollie, PC Shields and SC Sharpe helped searched the vehicle alongside the Barton^[3] Street policing team.
