Man admits drugs offences after warrant in South Gloucestershire
It comes after a warrant was carried out in Longwell Green last week
A man has been remanded into custody after admitting drugs offences.
It comes after a warrant was carried out in Longwell Green - in South Gloucestershire - last week.
25-year-old Brynley McCarthy, of Wildwood Close in Almondsbury, was arrested and charged following the warrant at a storage unit in Aldermoor Way.
Avon and Somerset Police say he was arrested after arriving while officers were completing a search of the unit, during which they found almost half a kilogram of cocaine and £89,000 in cash.
McCarthy appeared at Bristol Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 9 April where he pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply cocaine and possession of criminal property. He pleaded not guilty to possession with intent to supply cannabis.
He was remanded into custody to appear at Bristol Crown Court at a future date.
Insp Steve Davey said: “The supply of illegal drugs cause significant harm to our communities and particularly to their most vulnerable members.
“We continue to act on intelligence, as we have done in this case, to identify and tackle their supply and we would urge anyone who suspects drugs are being supplied in their area to contact us.”
