A teenage boy has been banned from entering Suffolk after being convicted of being involved in Class A drug dealing.

The 16 year old, who can't be named, admitted to two counts of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs and two counts of being concerned in the supply of Class A drugs at Ipswich Youth Court on Thursday 19 January.

It was found he'd been involved in dealing in the Ipswich area between June and December last year.

When he was arrested he was found to be possession of heroin and cocaine, along with £2,000 in cash and two mobile phones.

He's been handed a court order which prevents him from visiting the county for six montgs, along with a 24 mont Youth Rehabilitation Order.
