A man has been arrested on suspicion of drug driving offences after being detained by officers in Hedge End

It comes after officers were on routine patrols and stopped a white Peugeot van, having seen it driving in excess of the speed limit, on Hound Road just before 7.50pm on Friday 4 March.

Officers spoke with the driver of the vehicle and subsequently located a quantity of Class B drugs, which was seized as a result.

The man was also subject of a roadside drugs wipe – which he failed after it tested positive for cannabis.

A 28-year-old man from Southampton was arrested on suspicion of drug-driving and possession of a Class B drug.

He was released under investigation.
