A dealer was found with a machete and knife in his cupboard after police uncovered 'flare' messages on his phone.
Officers visited the home of David Morgan, 48, on The Knoll, Palacefields, Runcorn, to arrest him over an unrelated domestic violence matter on March 21 last year when they discovered his involvement in illicit substances. Simon Mintz, prosecuting at Chester Crown Court on Friday, said Morgan “struggled” during his arrest and ultimately produced a bag of “white and brown wraps”.
Officers also found some cannabis. The nine wraps were analysed and three were found to contain a total of 247mg of crack, and the six white wraps contained 800mg of heroin - totalling 1.047 grams of drugs.
