'Rise and shine, shop's open': Telford drug dealer's message to addicts before police took him down
A drug dealer who told addicts "rise and shine, shop's open for business" has been jailed after being caught with crack cocaine and heroin.
Stephen Wood, aged 45, was taken to the floor by a police officer who suspected he was dealing to two men at an underpass in Leegate Avenue, Leegomery, Telford.
Shrewsbury Crown Court heard that Wood confessed to having "baggies" in his possession before he was searched during the incident on June 29, 2021.
Wood had 21 bags of heroin and three bags of crack cocaine - worth a combined street value of around £200 - as well as £260 in cash.
He also had a mobile phone containing a text suggesting drug dealing.
