A man has been jailed after being found with a Kinder Egg full of cocaine.
Corey Sutton, 19 from Tonyrefail was sentenced to two years and four months in a Young Offenders Institute following his conviction.
The sentencing took place on Wednesday July 8 at Swansea Crown Court where Sutton was found guilty off being concerned in the supply of cocaine, possession with intent to supply cocaine and possession of cocaine.
This follows officers being on a mobile patrol in Tonyrefail when they came across a car known to be involved in drug dealing. Officers spoke to Sutton who was searched under the misuse of drugs act. During the search officers found a Kinder Egg filled with small bags of cocaine.
Officers also searched Sutton’s phone where they found a substantial number of messages involving him in the supply of class A drugs.
Police constable Adam Lewis said“Corey Sutton was caught in the act while trying to sell his drugs onto the streets of Rhondda.
“He is now going to prison for almost three years – a very costly price to pay which shows that dealing Class A drugs is just not worth it. Our officers will find you and you will go to prison.”
