Revellers attending both V Festivals this weekend have been warned by police not to take drugs onto the site.
Staffordshire police have confirmed that sniffer dogs will be used on the Weston Park site to smell out drugs and anyone caught will be prosecuted.
Chief Inspector Vera Bloor told the Birmingham Post: “Drugs aren’t welcome at V. If you take them, or deal in them, we’ll catch you and prosecute you.”
Staffordshire police will also be taking random breath tests for fans entering and leaving the site to ensure they're not over the drink drive limit.
In a separate warning, Chelmsford Police say they've stepped up CCTV coverage to catch all illegal activity and they will also be using sniffer dogs in their battle against narcotics.
Supt Steve Johnson said: “Let them be under no illusions about our stance on drug-taking or dealing. We will prosecute anyone seen to be committing criminal offences.”
Remember kids, drugs are bad.
