A man was arrested this morning (Friday) after Oldham police discovered bags of drugs which initially looked like they contained children's sweets.
A post on the GMP Oldham Central Facebook page read: "The St Mary’s, Glodwick and Roundthorn neighbourhood policing team - with assistance from colleagues - executed a drug warrants early this morning.
"Please note the packages that look like children’s sweets are in fact full of cannabis.
