OFFICERS arrested three suspected drug dealers this morning, after chasing the trio down when they tried to drive off.

A 28-year-old woman from Faringdon, a 19-year-old man from Oxford and a 23-year-old man from Oxford were all arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply class A drugs early this morning in Grove Road, Farmoor.

A police helicopter was also sent to help with the incident at 5am as the three reportedly tried to make a quick getaway by car.

TVP spokesman James Williams said the vehicle with the three people in left the road during the chase and crashed into a post.

They were then all arrested.
