A cocaine dealer who continued selling drugs to make money after being arrested by police has been jailed.
Connor Briggs was caught with 49 bags of cocaine after a car he was in was pulled over in Benwell, Newcastle and was released under investigation by officers. But seven months later police went to his home and found he was still at it.
Now the 22-year-old, of Mill Farm Close, Elswick, Newcastle, has been locked up for three years at Newcastle Crown Court after he pleaded guilty to possessing cocaine with intent to supply and possessing criminal property.
