Two men have been sentenced after police uncovered Class A drugs and thousands of pounds in cash during an operation in Swindon.

Officers received intelligence on 10 October that a wanted man was in the Eldene area with three other individuals. The group were reportedly wearing balaclavas and riding modified electric bikes and Surron-style motorcycles.

Police tracked the suspects to the rear garden of a property in Dickens Close, where they were found gathered together and attempting to access a garage. Officers detained the group to carry out stop and search procedures.

During the search, Class A drugs were discovered in rucksacks that had been thrown onto the garage roof. Around £4,000 in cash was also recovered.

Kenzie Cobb, 21, formerly of Islandsmead in Eldene, and Leo Morris, 20, formerly of Henry Street, Swindon, were arrested at the scene. Both were later charged and remanded in custody.

At Swindon Crown Court, Morris admitted supplying crack cocaine and heroin, possession of cannabis, and driving offences including having no insurance and driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence. He was sentenced to four years and one month in prison.

Cobb pleaded guilty to involvement in the supply of cannabis as well as the same driving offences. A previously suspended 16-month sentence was activated, and he received an additional 16-month term, resulting in a total custodial sentence of 32 months.

The court also approved the recovery of approximately £4,000 under the Proceeds of Crime Act.

A spokesperson from the local policing team said officers remain focused on tackling drug-related crime in Swindon and across Wiltshire, highlighting the links between drug supply and serious violence. Police have urged members of the public to share information about suspected drug activity by contacting 101 or using the force’s online reporting system.

A 34-year-old man has been sentenced to more than three years in prison after attempting to conceal a large quantity of Class A drugs inside a fake beer can.

Patrick Smith was stopped by officers from the Neighbourhood Support Team (NST) on 3 December in Cubitt Way, Woodston, Peterborough. Police said he had been seen interacting with individuals known for drug use in the area.

When officers informed Smith he would be detained for a search, he allegedly drove off at speed, mounting the pavement and narrowly avoiding both officers and street bollards.

The vehicle was later located parked in Earl Spencer Court. Smith was found nearby and appeared to be attempting to leave the area on foot.

Following his arrest, officers discovered a sizeable quantity of heroin and crack cocaine concealed inside a disguised beer can. The item had been discarded in a fence line close to where Smith had been seen lingering.

Smith, of Sycamore Road, Whittlesey, appeared before Cambridge Crown Court on 16 February. He admitted dangerous driving, possession with intent to supply heroin and crack cocaine, possession of criminal property relating to £290 in cash, and obstructing an officer during a Section 23 search.

He was sentenced to three years and two months in custody and disqualified from driving for 43 months. The court also ordered that the £290 seized be awarded to Cambridge Recovery Service.

PC Charlie Adams, who led the arrest, said officers had been patrolling the area following reports of drug activity. He added that removing illegal drugs from the streets remains a priority due to the wider harm associated with dealing and related crime.

Police continue to urge members of the public to report information about suspected drug activity in their communities.

This is the moment drug dealer Callum Finnigan tried to run from officers from our Bedford Community Policing Team in December last year.

While on a routine patrol on Bushmead Avenue, officers saw what they believed to be a drug deal taking place, leading them to stop and search the 24‑year‑old.

However, as officers approached, Finnigan made a break for it, throwing his bag into a nearby front garden in the process. After a brief foot chase, he was apprehended and, when officers recovered his bag, it was found to contain a substantial quantity of heroin and crack cocaine.

Earlier this month (February 2026), Finnigan was sentenced at Luton Crown Court to five years and seven months in prison for possession with intent to supply, and ordered to pay a total of £496.11 in costs. He also received a one‑month concurrent sentence for possession of cannabis, and had his mobile phone seized and destroyed.
