Man arrested after cocaine and £22,000 cash found in car following collision

Just before 11.30am yesterday (Sunday), an Audi RS5 was involved in a collision with an Audi Q3 on the A16 bypass in South Holland, Lincolnshire..

A spokesman for Lincolnshire police said: "Officers attended and no one was seriously hurt. After speaking with the driver of the RS5, a 46-year-old man, a traffic officer carried out a roadside drugs test, which works as a wipe on someone's hands.

"This test indicated the man had been in contact with an illegal substance and he was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence. The traffic officer then carried out a thorough search of the car and located a large bag which contained approximately £22,000 in cash and a large quantity of what the officer believed to be cocaine. This was divided into jars. The man was further arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply and later released under investigation."
