Three people have been arrested after entering a house in Worthing armed with knives.

According to Sussex Police, three men entered a 'garden room' in The Strand, Goring, at around 11.50pm on Friday, June 19, in possession of a knife.

They demanded property, police said, but no items were reported stolen.

The trip fled the scene prior to police officers arriving, but police dog Sparky, a German Shepherd, tracked him to a nearby street where he was detained.

A drone was then launched and detected the other two suspects, using a thermal imaging camera, hiding in a neighbouring garden.

All three suspects were arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary, police said.

A 16-year-old boy from Worthing was released on conditional bail until July 13, and a 24-year-old man and a 21-year-old man, both of no fixed address, were released on conditional bail until July 11, pending further enquiries.
