A man's been charged in connection with reported drink spiking in Derby.

Two women raised their concerns last Thursday (06/02) at the Standing Order in Derby, that they believed their drinks had been spiked with an unknown substance.

Police arrested a 37-year-old man at the freehouse.

He was later charged with two counts of administering a noxious substance and remanded into custody.

The man has since appeared before Magistrates, where he was released on conditional bail, ahead of a future court appearance.

The date of that is yet to be confirmed.
