A man has been arrested after we found around £10k in cash and wraps of suspected crack cocaine and heroin in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Officers pulled the car over on the A34 near the Talke Road junction. The wraps were found hidden in the centre console when we searched it, along with £140 in cash and two mobile phones.

We then searched an address and found an estimated £10,000 in cash.

A 29-year-old man, from Stoke-on-Trent, has been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply crack cocaine, possession of a class A drug, failing to provide a specimen for analysis, failing to co-operate with a preliminary test and possessing criminal property.

He is being questioned in custody.
