Drugs found after stolen car is stopped near Bridgnorth
Three men in their 20s were arrested after police stopped a suspected stolen car in a village near Bridgnorth on Wednesday.
Officers were called to Wootton just before 9pm, after a silver Honda Civic reported stolen from the West Midlands the previous day was seen in the area.
The car was spotted on the car park of The Cider House pub and officers remained in the area, stopping the vehicle when it left a short time later and arresting its three occupants.
A search of the car resulted in several packets of what are believed to be Class A and Class B drugs being found.
Damage was caused to two police vehicles as a result of the car being stopped by officers but nobody was injured.
All three were arrested on suspicion of stealing the car from the Whitmore Reans area of Wolverhampton the previous day.
The driver was also arrested on suspicion of possession of controlled drugs and driving offences while one of his passengers was also arrested on suspicion of possession of controlled drugs.
All three were interviewed and have been released on police bail while enquiries continue.
