A man from Burnley has been jailed and up to £100,000 worth of class B drugs seized after he was stopped by officers in Cheshire for driving while using a mobile phone.
Mark Danson appeared at Chester Crown Court on Friday 21 February where he was sentenced to seven years and two months in prison.
The 42-year-old of Beatrice Avenue, Burnley, had earlier pleaded guilty to one count of possession with intent to supply class B drugs (amphetamine).
On Wednesday 28 August 2024 officers from the Cheshire Police Roads and Crime Unit were patrolling the M6 when they spotted Danson driving a grey Mitsubishi Shotgun while using a mobile phone.
Police stopped the car, and Danson was issued with the paperwork for the driving offence.
After issuing the penalty notice, officers conducted a number of checks on the vehicle, at which point Danson appeared uncomfortable and stood in front of the boot in an attempt to stop officers looking inside.
Due to his behaviour officers searched the boot where they discovered several bags containing 62.5kg of amphetamine, with an estimated value of £40-£100k.
Danson was arrested at the scene and during questioning he claimed that he was transporting the drugs for somebody else in order to pay off a drugs debt.
