A police force says the seizure was one of its 'biggest ever resulting from a vehicle stop check'.

A man has been arrested over what a police force said was "undoubtedly" one of its "biggest ever cash seizures resulting from a vehicle stop check". Lancashire Police said officers found more than £250,000 in a black Kia Sportage, which was stopped on the M6 near Leyland on Monday "following the suspicious nature of its driving".A Northampton man, aged 35, was held on suspicion of money-laundering.
Det Ch Insp Mark Riley said the seizure sent out "a strong message to organised criminal groups that Lancashire is not a safe place to transport your ill-gotten gains". "This is undoubtedly one of the biggest ever cash seizures resulting from a vehicle stop check in Lancashire," he said.
