Suspected Church Gresley Drug Dealer "Hid Cocaine Wraps In Kinder Egg Containers"

Swadlincote Police have seized items from a Church Gresley man suspected of drug dealing and concealing cocaine in Kinder chocolate egg containers.

Police say they searched his property on Wednesday evening and found more drugs and drugs-related equipment.

A post on the Swadlincote Safer Neighbourhood Team Facebook page says that the man was spoken to and enquiries are continuing.

The SNT message reads: "Our Chuckles were disappointed to find that all the chocolate had been eaten from these Kinder Eggs, it seems however that they've moved on from the little plastic toys.

"Our brothers located wraps of what is believed to be cocaine on a male on Talbot Street, Church Gresley this evening.

"Following arrest and search of his address more drugs were located, along with weighing scales and other items suggesting that he had been dealing in the area.

"The male has been interviewed, items seized and the enquiry is ongoing."

Swadlincote Police also reported seizing an uninsured vehicle at a bus stop.

Their post continued: "Batman and Bully also took another uninsured vehicle off the road tonight.

"Pulling him at the bus stop must have been a sign, let's hope he read the timetable as he'll be needing it!"
