Two Stoke-on-Trent dealers have been locked up after they worked together to supply class A drugs across Staffordshire.

Lewis Redden, 20, from Fenton, and Marlon Dickens, 28, from Blurton, were sentenced at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on Wednesday 14 August after both pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine and heroin. 

Redden was locked up for one-year-and-eight-months, while Dickens received three-years-and-nine-months behind bars.

Both men were sentenced at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court on 14 August (Nub News).

It follows an investigation into a class A drugs line by officers from Staffordshire Police's major and organised crime proactive teams.

Their work enabled officers to search two addresses in Stoke-on-Trent. Raids took place on Monday 20 February and Tuesday 21 February this year, where evidence used in the case was secured.
