The driver will now be dealt with through the courts.

Officers also spoke to local communities to gather information about suspected drug suppliers.

A police spokesman said: “We have gathered lots of intelligence that our teams are piecing together with existing information to help plan our activity over the coming days, weeks and months.”

He added: “If you’ve seen anything suspicious or heard anything about who is carrying weapons or dealing drugs in MK, you can tell us here or report it anonymously via Crimestoppers.”.
