Drug dealer who abandoned vehicle in Milton Keynes while evading police jailed after being found with 400 bags of cannabis

Karol Wieczorkowski, aged 21, of no fixed abode, was jailed for two years and six months after being found in possession of “significant quantities” of cocaine and cannabis.

Thames Valley Police reported that Wieczorkowski was identified driving a vehicle in Milton Keynes on July 3, shortly after being released from prison.

The vehicle failed to stop when requested by police and was later found abandoned and unlocked in Oldbrook, where police recovered a quantity of cannabis.

Following information from the public, police attended a nearby address where they located and arrested Wieczorkowski, and discovered cocaine and cannabis packaged in deal bags.

A later search of a further address linked to Wieczorkowski uncovered more than 400 deal bags of cannabis, around 50 deal bags of Class A drugs, cash, weighing scales, empty drug packaging and two mobile phones.

Following a trial at Aylesbury Crown Court Wieczorkowski was jailed after pleading guilty to possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, possession with intent to supply Class B drugs and possessing criminal property.

Speaking following Wieczorkowski’s sentencing investigating officer PC Matthew Phillips said: “Drug dealing causes significant harm in our communities and Thames Valley Police remains committed to identifying, disrupting and bringing those involved in the supply of illegal drugs before the courts.

“The sentence handed to Wieczorkowski demonstrates our determination to tackle those who seek to profit from criminal activity and exploit vulnerable people through the supply of drugs.

“This result was achieved with the support of members of the public, whose information helped officers locate and arrest Wieczorkowski.

“This case shows the importance of our communities providing information and intelligence to help develop proactive investigations.”

Information about suspected drug dealing in the area can be reported to Thames Valley Police via the 101 number, or anonymously by contacting the Crimestoppers charity on 0800 555 111.
