Dad who fled Liverpool after being shot in mistaken identity jailed for drugs operation

A dad who fled Liverpool after being shot in a case of mistaken identity has now been jailed for his involvement in a drugs operation.

Barry Weadock, 37, and accomplice Ryan Miller, 22, were caught when police executed a drugs search warrant at the home of Weadock's girlfriend on Pickering View in Hull. He and Miller were both inside and others were also there, reports HullLive.

Miller was said to have "bounced from one disaster in his life to another disaster" but had been "bragging about how much money he was making", Hull Crown Court heard. Nigel Clive, prosecuting, said Weadock was in a bedroom and £3,000 cash and a telephone were found in a wardrobe.
