A suspected drug dealer has been arrested after Sevenoaks officers stopped him for speeding in icy conditions.

    At around 2.50am on Tuesday 13 December 2022, a patrol in Westerham Road spotted a Skoda Yeti exceeding the 30mph speed limit.

    The constables stopped the vehicle in Bradbourne Vale Road to advise the motorist about the manner of his driving.

    Search

    The 21-year-old from Norwood, London was asked why he was in the area at that time and, following a short conversation, was detained for a drug search.

    The officers then seized around 20 wraps of suspected cocaine and a quantity of cash from the vehicle.

    The driver was arrested on suspicion of possessing class A drugs with intent to supply, driving without a licence, driving without insurance, and was taken into custody.
