Met Police make 290 arrests in county lines crackdown

The Metropolitan Police has made more than 290 arrests in the last week in the latest crackdown on county lines drug crimes.

The practice sees drug operations run from London to areas across the country, using young and vulnerable people as couriers.

A number of police raids took place as part of the operation, which the Met said closed 92 drug lines.

BBC reporter Harry Low followed a raid where a suspected drug dealer was arrested.
