A drugs den containing thousands of pounds of heroin and cocaine, a cannabis farm and weapons was discovered after police pulled over its occupant in a car.
When Gareth Smith was stopped in Holywell, Northumberland in May this year, officers formed the view his home should be searched as they believed he may be under the influence of something. When they got there they found the house was "given over to the supply of drugs."
There was 455g of heroin, 100g of cocaine, scales, tablets, 30 cannabis plants, an air weapon, balaclava, nunchucks, crossbow, a long-barrelled weapon and a knuckle duster. The heroin was worth up to £12,000 and the cocaine £5,000.
