A man has been jailed for three-years-and-four-months for dealing heroin and crack cocaine in Stoke-on-Trent.

Ryan Pass, who's 21-years-old, was stopped in June by police officers.

He tried to stop them searching him, but they found £3200 in cash and wraps of heroin and crack cocaine in his pockets valued at £5000.

He's also been banned from driving for two-years-and-20-months after being seen driving two cars, despite being banned through a previous conviction.

A Staffordshire police spokesperson said "After being arrested and charged, Pass appeared in court at an earlier hearing and pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply a controlled drug of class A – heroin, possession with intent to supply a controlled drug of class A – crack cocaine, possessing criminal property and two counts of driving while disqualified.

"He was jailed for three-years-and-four-months at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on Wednesday (3 September), as well as being ordered to pay a surcharge of £228 and being banned from driving for a further two-years-and-20-months."
