Drug Dealer Discovered Under Car In St Ives

A drug dealer who tried to evade officers by hiding under a car has been jailed for more than two years.

22-year-old Mohammed Ali was walking along Renoir Close on 21 June last year when he saw police on patrol and began running towards Victor Close.

Ali was pursued by officers as he climbed a garden fence and made his way towards Stirling Way, where he was found trying to hide under a car.

During the chase he threw a black bag onto a nearby garage roof.

Inside the bag officers found 82 wraps of heroin and 48 wraps of crack cocaine, worth an estimated £1,300.

Ali, of Little Farthing Close, St Ives, was jailed for 30 months at Cambridge Crown Court after pleading guilty to two counts of possessing a class A drug with intent to supply at an earlier hearing.
