Drugs and a phone were left behind in a car when a dealer panicked and fled after spotting police officers in Sheffield.

The items were seized and will be examined in a bid to identify the dealer and associates.

South Yorkshire Police said the car was on false number plates in Upperthorpe and as officers approached in a patrol car the dealer inside fled – leaving a bag of cannabis, a phone and ‘dealer equipment’ in the vehicle.
