Trading standards dog Griff has been hard at work in Wolverhampton as shops were inspected for illegal vapes and tobacco.

Police officers seized 217 vapes and large quantities of illegal cigarettes from one shop in Wednesfield on Monday, West Midlands Police said.

Griff also sniffed out handfuls of cannabis and prescription drugs at another store, officers said on Facebook.

The inspections were part of a week-long scheme from the force, focused on raising awareness of anti-social behaviour.
