Man caught operating a Class A drug phone order service

A man involved in a Class A drug order service near Bristol has been jailed. Aaron Francis advertised sales, took orders and directed runners to make drops, Bristol Crown Court heard.

The 28-year-old, of Blakeney Road in Bristol, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin. The offences spanned September and October last year, the court heard.

Judge William Hart jailed him for four years and three months. The judge, who found Francis played a significant role in the operation, told him: "You know that I have to impose a significant custodial sentence today, the only question is one of length."
