A man from Crewe who was caught dealing drugs on social media has been jailed.
Connor Harrison appeared at Chester Crown Court on Tuesday 26th August where he was sentenced to eight months in prison and ordered to pay a £228 surcharge.
The 33-year-old, of James Gibbons Road in Crewe, had earlier pleaded guilty to one count of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs and one count of being concerned in the supply of class B drugs.
The case began in May 2025, when officers became of a social media account which was clearly involved in the supply of cocaine and cannabis in the Crewe area.
Following enquiries officers identified Harrison as the owner of the account and a warrant was conducted at his home on Friday 20 June, where he was arrested at the scene.
During a search of the address officers located a number of items, including digital scales, small snap bags, a pot containing blue tablets, £210 cash, a small amount of cannabis plus documentation relating to drug dealing.
A mobile phone was also seized from Harrison’s bedside cabinet. The device was later examined by officers and clearly showed that Harrison had been dealing drugs on his social media account.
Detective Constable Jemma Bingham , of Crewe Proactive CID, said:
“I welcome the sentence handed to Harrison and I hope it acts as a warning to others in the local area.
“The dangers of drugs are well-known and our fight against these illegal substances is never over. We will continue to crack down on those who bring drugs into our communities and hold those responsible to account.”
