A 25-year-old drug dealer has been jailed after police officers saw him dealing drugs on Bristol Terrace in the North East.
Officers found a knife, wraps of cocaine and heroin, and two mobile phones on the 25 year old after they searched him.
An officer gave chase to the man and caught him. However, he might not have been caught if it wasn't for him ditching his bike on the street where the police were, as they used this to catch the offender.
When caught, the man was swiftly arrested and put before Newcastle Crown Court shortly after his arrest. He was sentenced to 3 years and 1 month behind bars.
