A TEEN AGE drug dealer i w ho .\ as found in posses j sion of a knuckle duster ; has been sentenced to 150 hours of unpaid commu— ‘ nity work. Hereford Crown Court ‘ heard that Jamie Page. of Riddimore Avenue, Redhill. Hereford, was caught after police saw him riding a push bike without lights on Vine- yard Road on September 22. The 18—year—old was then stopped by a police sergeant who smelt can— nabis. Page was searched and the officer recovered a small plastic tub contain- ing deal bags, a set of scales. a brass knuckle l l i By Jessica Phillips ,, ' 39;. _..c:‘d:i;ries.coni duster, a cannabis grind- er, a bong and two mobile phones. A total of £25 in cash was found in his wallet and he was arrested. Further searches of his home address were later conducted, and a 15-gram bag of cannabis with six further deal bags were found along with £240 in cash. During his police inter view, Page made a full ad- mission, the court heard, and was ‘utterly candid’ about his offences. He explained that he had been selling for sev- eral months and the scales were used to split the cannabis into sepa— rate deals which he sold for £10 a time. He said he sold to ap- proximately 20 people regularly in the Here- fordshire area, arranging deals over the phone. The knuckle cluster was there for protection, the court heard, as Page had previously been involved in an incident where money and drugs had been taken from him. Page admitted four of- fences of possessing an offensive weapon in a public place, supplying a controlled class B drug and two counts of pos— sessing a class B drug with intent to supply. Defending Page at Her- eford Crown Court last week, Michael Aspinall said the teenager had been using cannabis him self since the age of 13. All those he sold to were friends or acquaintances, he added. He had come off can- nabis over the New Year period, Mr Aspinall said, and felt ‘ashamed’ of what he had done. Page’s father would be able to get him a job, the court heard, and part of the job requirement was drug testing, which would keep him clean. “He’s an intelligent Unlit bike costs dealer With a knuckle duster young man who wants to work and move forward with his life and get away from what he did in the past,” said Mr Aspinall. “He’s committed to change and will be a good member of the commu- nity.” Judge Daniel Pearce- Higgins, said it was clear that Page was a ‘foolish young man’ who wanted to do better. He sentenced Page to a community order of 24 months with a drug re- habilitation requirement and 150 hours of unpaid work. 00000000000 24l7news herefordtimes.com a?" his out in; is": 2 Sofas - Chairs - Dining Lighting - Accessories ‘lLDJJ i |
