A DRUG dealer caught in possession of wraps of cocaine after being seen parked up in vehicle at Victory Park, Barnoldswick, has been jailed.

Matthew Lamb, of Basil Street, Colne, was stopped by police in October 2020 and found to be in possession of cocaine. He was subsequently arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply cocaine.

Upon examination, Lamb's mobile phone contained messages that indicated his supplying of drugs.

He was sentenced at Burnley Crown Court to 30-months in prison.

A spokesperson for Lancashire Police said: "Officers will continue to target those involved in the supply of drugs.

"If you have any information in relation to drugs being supplied in your local area please contact your local neighbourhood policing team, call 101."
