Bishop was later charged with two counts of possession with intent to supply cannabis and cocaine.

While Brown was charged with two counts of being concerned in the supply of drugs.

Police revealed Bishop is also under investigation in connection with a separate incident in Rochester last year.

On April 19 it's alleged a vehicle failed to stop for officers in the town before colliding with a police car and a private property.

He was charged with a further two counts of possessing drugs with intent to supply, aggravated taking of a motor vehicle without consent, dangerous driving and criminal damage.
