Stash of crack cocaine and heroin hidden in washing machine

Police found almost 150 ready-to-sell deals of crack cocaine and heroin hidden in a washing machine, a court has heard. Officers had gone to the flat in Swansea to conduct a check on the tenant following concerns about her welfare.

Police found the person they were looking for – Tammy Vandenberg – along with a man from Birmingham and more than £2,400 of Class A drugs concealed in the detergent drawer of the washer. Both people in the flat were arrested, and Vandenberg later admitted she had allowed the visitor to stay in her home and had acted as a runner for him, delivering drugs and collecting cash. Swansea Crown Court heard the man – who told police he was only in Swansea to visit his girlfriend whom he wouldn't name – is currently on the run and his whereabouts are unknown.
