The Kinder Egg drug dealer has been jailed
A Corby man was caught with a stash of heroin and crack cocaine in a Kinder Egg.
Victor Carvalho, 36, of Gainsborough Road, was seen acting suspiciously by officers who approached him in Park Street, New Fletton, Peterborough on January 3, 2019.
Police found nothing on him but when they searched his vehicle they found a Kinder Egg in the driver's door.
Inside there was 35 wraps of heroin and 17 wraps of crack cocaine.
Carvalho pleaded guilty to two counts of possession with intent to supply class A drugs at Peterborough Crown Court on Thursday, 5 March.
He has been sentenced to three years and nine months in prison.
DC Paul Twell from Cambridgeshire Police said: "Drugs devastate lives and cause misery for our communities.
"Often drug dealing and violence go hand-in-hand, making it vital that we catch the perpetrators and bring them to justice."
Anyone with information on drug dealing should call police on 101.
