A street dealer who smoked cannabis daily from the age of 13 was caught with a knife for the second time in just over a year.
Craig Bakker, then 19, was spotted walking along Poulton Road in Wallasey at around 3pm on December 9 last year. Liverpool Crown Court heard the teenager came to the attention of plain clothes police officers on patrol in the area.
Derek Jones, prosecuting, told the court: "The defendant was by now walking along Sherlock Lane and appeared to be nervous, looking backwards and forwards furtively. Because of that the police decided to stop and talk to the defendant.
