'Suspicious' man led police to £13k drug haul at his house

A dad-of-two spotted acting suspiciously was found to be a cannabis dealer with almost £13,000 of drugs at his home.

Darren Jones had previously been given a suspended jail sentence for supplying cannabis, a court heard today. Chris Taylor, prosecuting, told Liverpool Crown Court at 5pm on October 21 last year, police officers saw the defendant leaving an address in Southport.

Mr Taylor said: “He then appeared to rush to another address and was banging at the door and then entered it. A matter of seconds later he left the address and his behaviour was such that it gave the officers cause for suspicion and he was detained.”
