Coventry Police seize large number of nitrous oxide cannisters to stop drug abuse in city centre

Coventry Editorial 2nd Jan, 2022   0

POLICE officers have seized a large quantity of gas canisters in Coventry city centre.

The action was taken because there is a Public Space Protection Order in the area.

The PSPO prohibits people from using nitrous oxide canisters to get high.

The canisters – primarily used for cake making and filling helium balloons – are abused by people wanting a short-term high.




The seizure was made by Coventry City Centre Police.
