Headline of the week goes to: Wales – “Man peddling weed on a bicycle turns over new leaf”

It made me smile!

A cycling cannabis dealer tried to flee from police on two wheels and then two legs, a court has heard. Scott Abraham was chased by plain-clothes police officers after they saw him carrying out a drug deal on the streets.

Swansea Crown Court heard the 20-year-old defendant has a young daughter and has landed a job working in recycling and refuse collection with the local council. Handing the defendant a suspended prison sentence a judge told him he needs to learn from the experience of being prosecuted.

The court heard that on April 26 this year officers patrolling the Mayhill area of Swansea in an unmarked police car saw a male with a bicycle – later identified as Abraham – carrying out an “exchange” with someone on Llewellyn Circle. The officers turned their car around and drove back to the suspected deal, and as they they pulled up the defendant made off on his cycle. The court heard the officers pursued the cycling dealer onto Pen-y-Graig Road and then onto Teilo Crescent where he abandoned his bike and took to his heels. Abraham was caught and searched and was found to be carrying 23g of cannabis in six separate bags, £240 in cash, and a phone.
