A man caught in a car on Glasgow's M74 carrying nearly £15,000 of heroin and cocaine, while a lamb named Pablo munched chips on the back seat, has avoided prison. John McNeil, 56, was found guilty of possessing drugs with intent to supply. A sheriff ordered 300 hours of unpaid work and a six-month curfew tag. The lamb was later safely returned to its farm.
