For 178 days, the Long Haired Luke drugs line ran like clockwork - day and night - between Salford and Warrington.
During six months, the county line gang is estimated to have brought around between 1.7kg and 3.5kg of class A drugs onto the streets - with a value of up to £500,000.
Sending out flare messages - often teasing the ‘fattest and best’ drugs - they would tempt users in the small town of Warrington with crack cocaine and heroin.
