Polic seized more than £27,000 worth of illegal goods and cash in Rochdale over the weekend – after initially being called over a carbon monoxide leak.

A gas engineer was initially called to reports of a potential gas leak in Osborne Street – subsequently being turned away by those in the address.

After a call was made to GMP, officers attended the property. After it was made safe, numerous suspected illegal goods and products were discovered, including items which had been thrown out of the window when officers arrived.

Three men, aged 24, 29, and 32, were subsequently arrested on suspicion of money laundering and attempting to sell counterfeit goods. They remain in custody for questioning.
