'Beginner drug dealer' stopped on M54 in Telford with 'starter pack'
An alleged "beginner" drug dealer has been arrested after he was stopped on the M54 in Telford with a "starter pack" of illegal substances, say police.
The driver, who had cocaine, cannabis and a burner phone, was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply and taken to custody after his arrest last night.
He also failed a roadside drug test carried out by police.
Operational Patrol Unit Shropshire said: "Intelligence led stop on a vehicle on the M54 in Telford. The driver was just beginning his career as a drug dealer and we found him in possession of a 'starter pack'.
"He was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent. Now in the cells reconsidering his career choices."
