This was the reaction of a Sheffield response officer whose instincts and keen eye resulted in a traffic stop uncovering a hidden stash of suspected Class A drugs.
Last week, officers on mobile patrol on the A57 near Moss Way sighted a Citroen C3 overtake a vehicle and continue travelling at speed. Officers requested the vehicle to stop and, after sighting drug-related paraphernalia within the car, a search was conducted.
During the search, a bag of suspected heroin was found underneath the driver's seat. Other items found during the search included a bag with hundreds of pounds of cash in.
A 40-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, driving whilst unfit through drink or drugs and driving whilst disqualified. A 20-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs and possessing Class B or C drugs.
Both men have been bailed pending further enquiries.
