Dramatic moment police arrest man who smuggled drugs into prisons via drones

This is the dramatic moment police arrested a man responsible for smuggling up to £300k of drugs into prisons via drones.In the space of less than a year, Curtis Carney, 36, and his accomplice Robert Stoba, 26, attempted 50 drops with the devices, over six different prisons across the North West of England.The pair groomed vulnerable women into their crimes, using them to store the drugs and to drive them to the jails, so as not to arouse suspicion.But they were caught following an investigation by detectives, from the North West Regional Organised Crime Unit (NWROCU), who stopped ringleader Carney on the M6 in Lancashire in June last year.Moments before pulling onto the hard shoulder, Carney hurled a large package - which was wrapped in grass to camouflage it - from the car.Officers found it on the motorway embankment and discovered drugs and mobile phones inside. A drone was also discovered inside the boot of his VW Polo.
