A SPECIAL delivery was made by Thames Valley Police this week – they ensured a McDonald’s order reached its intended destination.
They stopped a Deliveroo moped driver to ensure they had appropriate insurance in place, but instead discovered he carrying a quantity of drugs in his delivery bag.
They also found that they had no insurance or a driving licence. They hadn’t passed a test, nor were they displaying L plates.
And a roadside test found they had had cannabis in their salvia.
Thames Valley Police’s PC Payne said in a social media post: “Unsurprisingly they were arrested for the multitude of offences, taken to custody where they’ve had a specimen of their blood obtained which will be sent off for analysis in due course.
“The moped was also seized for road traffic offences and information will be provided to their employer to make them aware of the clear food safety issues.”
They added: “I’m fairly sure your burger and fries don’t come with a free bag or two of cannabis edibles.”
In response to questions posed by members of the social media site, they confirmed: “Yes, the McDonald’s was safely delivered to the hungry customer prior to heading off to custody.
“Not all heroes wear capes.”
