Police stop car with cracked windscreen on M6... and make £180k discovery

Police stopped a car with a cracked windscreen on the M6 motorway - and uncovered more than £100,000 worth of cannabis inside.

The red Renault Kangoo was stopped by traffic officers near to the Thelwall Viaduct on the afternoon of Tuesday, January 17, police said. Officers spoke to the two men inside about the damaged windscreen and then breath tested the driver - 36-year-old Derek Miller.

The drug test came back positive. Police then searched the vehicle and discovered three vacuum-packed bags full of cannabis.
