Man arrested after cocaine and class A drugs found

A man has been arrested after we found cocaine and other class A drugs in Rugeley – believed to be worth around £7,000.

At around 5.15pm yesterday (Thursday 5 January), we stopped a Fiesta on Sandy Lane and searched the driver. We found class A drugs and a mobile phone.

We then sent officers to an address near Hednesford Road and searched the inside, where we found a number of class A drugs inside and around £11,000 in cash.

A 47-year-old man, from Rugeley, was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply a controlled drug of class A – cocaine.

He has since been released on conditional police bail while inquiries continue.
