Thames Valley Police made the discovery after a vehicle stop in Aylesbury.

The Local Proactive Team uncovered the drugs hidden inside a modified drinks can during the stop.

They found 24 wraps of cocaine, saying the disguise "didn't fool" their officers.

As a result of the discovery Verneque Valenrino has now been jailed for 28 months after pleading guilty to supplying Class A drugs.

In their social media post announcing the prison time, Thames Valley Police said "it's always nice when evidence is clearly labelled".
