War medals and jewellery were seized by police when two men were arrested after a car overturned.

Police were called at 12.32pm on Sunday, April 12 to an overturned vehicle in Horsenden Lane, Greenford.

Witnesses reported that the car appeared to lose control, skid off the road and ended up on its side in a ditch.

The driver got out and was sitting nearby when police arrived, and the London Ambulance Service treated a second man at the scene before taking him to Ealing hospital as a precaution.

Passersby reported seeing the driver throw something in nearby bushes, where officers discovered a box filled with various items including antique jewellery and war medals.

A 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of drinking and driving and handling stolen goods and a 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of handling stolen goods.

Both men have been bailed to a date in May pending further enquiries.

Officers have released images of the medals and antique jewellery which will be of huge sentimental value to the owner, in the hope that they come forward.

If you recognise any of these items or know who they may belong to, contact PC Nabi Chentouf of Ealing Police on 101.
