Two men were caught with more than £100,000 worth of cannabis after police stopped them on the M6 with a cracked windscreen.
Officers spotted the Renault Kangoo near to Thelwall viaduct and stopped the car in January this year. Police spoke to the two people inside the car regarding the damage and the driver of car, 36-year-old Derek Miller, was subjected to a roadside breath and drugs test.
Following a positive drugs test, officers went on to search the car and discovered three vacuum bags full of cannabis weighing a total of 26kg, believed to be valued at between £104,000 and £182,000. Both Miller and the passenger in the car, 46-year-old Mark Lindsey, were arrested on suspicion of drugs offences.
