DRONE footage has captured the moment suspected drug dealers were running away in Connah's Quay.

The video released by North Wales Police shows two young men running away in Connah's Quay on Wednesday morning.

A spokesman for the North Flintshire policing team said: "Deeside Residents. Thanks so much for you assistance in finding the two young men running away in the Quay this morning. Couldn't have done it without you.

"One young man successfully shipped back to Liverpool, will give you one guess what they were up to... hint: it's not a valid excuse for leaving your house."
