The incident happened on the Lancashire section of the motorway at around 3.36pm on Monday . Officers stopped a black Kia Sportage, close to Leyland, following the suspicious nature of its driving.
In the back of the vehicle was tightly wrapped bundles of cash totalling more than quarter of a million pounds. A 35-year-old man from Northampton has been arrested on suspicion of money-laundering. He currently remains in custody.T/DCI Mark Riley, of our Digital Media Investigation and Economic Crime Unit, said: “This is undoubtedly one of the biggest ever cash seizures resulting from a vehicle stop check in Lancashire. I’d like to thank all those involved in this pro-active policing.
“I hope it sends out a strong message to Organised Criminal Groups that Lancashire is not a safe place to transport your ill-gotten gains. We will find it and we will take it off you.”
