POLICE discovered more than they had bargained for when stopping a vehicle in Bradford earlier this week.

Officers made the stop, in relation to driving standards, in the Little Horton area of the city.

However, further investigations led to an arrest.

The driver was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.

A spokesperson from West Yorkshire Police's Operation Steerside said: "On Wednesday, during targeted patrols of the Little Horton area of West Yorkshire Police - Bradford East, we stopped a vehicle in relation to driving standards.

"Further investigations led to the driver being arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.

"Investigation ongoing."

Operation Steerside has been dedicated to tackling dangerous and anti-social driving in Bradford since 2016.
