Two men have been arrested following a suspected drink spiking.

It happened in Evesham, Worcestershire, on Saturday in Marilyn's Nightclub, on Bridge Street, in the early hours.

One of the suspects was allegedly seen placing a suspected drug into a drink and then encouraging a woman to drink it before touching her inappropriately.

The two men, aged 22 and 30, were arrested on suspicion of drink spiking and sexual assault and have been bailed while further enquiries are carried out.

When officers attended the scene door staff made them aware of the two men as they had gathered them into the entrance corridor of the nightclub.

The victim was taken to hospital for treatment after she became unconscious.
