The leader of a major county lines drug gang was jailed.
Thomas Ambrose, from Wallasey, appeared in Liverpool Crown Court on Monday, December 12, charged with the supply of crack and heroin. The court heard that Merseyside police were able to prove the 28-year-old was controlling the ‘Curly’ County Line in Chester between October and November.
As a result he was sentenced to three years. The sentencing comes as a result of an investigation into County Lines drug dealing and the criminal exploitation of children through Operation Toxic.
