Following on from a job that police dealt with yesterday (18th December) Police Officers from West Midlands Police (Traffic Unit) stopped a vehicle earlier on today as it travelled along the M6.

The traffic stop was part of a joint operation between the roads policing unit and other specialist departments & teams from within West Midlands Police. 

The vehicle was stopped close to Junction 1 on the busy motorway. 

As officers searched the vehicle, they found a large holdall that contained approximately £500,000 in cash. 

Pictures shared on the @TrafficWMP twitter page revealed the bundles of cash which had been bound together. 

A job from yesterday. Joint operation led to a stop on this vehicle on the #M6 near to junction 1. The driver was found with this in a holdall. Roughly £500k in cash.

No doubt there is a criminal gang out there somewhere, who will be wondering where their huge stash of cash ended up. 

We have heard of some fairly decent hauls of cash being seized, but £500,000 is definitely up there with perhaps the largest haul of cash being found in a car in recent months, if not years. 

Hopefully the cash can be ploughed back into the departments which put in the ground work that led to the money being seized.

Before you go...

WE NEED YOUR HELP.Here at Emergency Services News, we aim to tell you stories that the mainstream media are not interested in reporting. Whilst the MSM love to berate and ridicule the emergency services, who is there to report on the realities of serving on the front line?

Emergency Services News is currently a loss-making entity. But our team of volunteers, all former emergency services personnel, do not do it for the money.

We do it because we are sick and tired of the mainstream media constantly trying to undermine the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep you and your family safe.

How many MSM journalists who speak ill of the emergency services have actually dared to don the uniform and risk their own lives to save the life of a complete stranger? If you would like to help back our mission of reporting on fact-based news, then please consider helping to support us financially.

Please help us to continue to highlight the life-saving work of the emergency services, NHS and armed forces by becoming a supporter.
