Two mobile phones and 26 bags of suspected drug paraphernalia have been found during a police patrol of Queens Park.
Over the weekend, officers from Bolton’s investigation team discovered what appeared to be bags of drug paraphernalia.
Police had been patrolling Queens Park, situated off Chorley New Road, when they stopped to speak to the driver of a silver Peugeot.
The driver then allegedly left the scene, their vehicle, and their ‘belongings’.
A spokesperson from Greater Manchester Police’s Bolton West team said: “Should the driver of this vehicle wish to attempt to claim these items back, please attend Bolton Police Station”.
