A DRUG dealer launched two kilos of heroin onto the M56 during a police chase before dangerously weaving through traffic, going around a roundabout the wrong way and smashing through a barrier at Manchester Airport.

Neil Corrigan led officers on a long pursuit across the county after they had tried to stop him in his white Mercedes Sprinter van near Warrington on March 5 this year.

Corrigan failed to stop and instead drove away, throwing a large package out of the window in the process. He was followed onto the M56, with dashcam footage showing him weaving in and out of traffic at speed.

He then drove onto the A555 towards Manchester Airport. He was seen mounting the kerb and going around a roundabout in the wrong direction before ploughing into a barrier near to the entrance of a multi-storey car park at Terminal One.
