A man from Liverpool has been jailed after police pulled over a pink muscle car containing up to £500,000 worth of drugs.
Michael Smyth, 29, of Compton Road, Liverpool, was jailed for more than seven years after his DNA was found on packages of drugs worth up to £500,000 in a pink Ford Mustang being driven by his associates. Police had pulled over the car after spotting it driving erratically on the M6 last October by his associate, Emily Phillips.
Phillips was arrested and taken into police custody and the car was impounded, while passenger Robert Dalton was dropped off at Sandbach services. However Dalton was later arrested after officers searched the car and found thousands of ecstasy tablets with a value of up to £500,000 in a bag.
