Police spotted a black Citroen Saxo driving erratically on St David’s Road North, St Annes at 4am yesterday.
The car had a strong smell of cannabis emanating from it and when officers searched the car, they found numerous “snapbags” containing white powder, namely Class A drugs.
A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of drug driving and being concerned with the supply of cocaine.
