A drug gang leader was brought down after police swooped on a block of flats in Stretford and found drugs, guns and grenades. Nathan Morgan, 37, managed the group and was trusted by those higher within the OCG to store high value and ‘potentially lethal’ weapons at the flats on Milton Close.
Morgan lived at one of the flats, but was also found with keys in relation to three others which were used to grow cannabis, store and safeguard the firearms and grenades. He exerted his influence over two of the flat owners, Brian Day, 49, and Sarah Tervet, 42, Minshull Street Crown Court heard.
Gareth Curtis, 34, worked under the instruction of Morgan, managing the storage of the items which were recovered during a seizure on January 28 2021. Around 36 hours before the police raid, there was a ‘flurry’ of contact between Tervet, Curtis and Morgan informing them of the police activity.
