An Aberdeen man was caught with thousands of pounds of drugs after the car he was in caught the attention of police – because of the way it was parked.

Officers spotted the car, in which Shaun Cowie, known as Argo, 26, was a passenger in on Back Hilton Road, Aberdeen, on August 21 around 6pm.

Depute fiscal Felicity Merson said officers smelled cannabis on approaching the vehicle and detained Argo for a search.
