A HEREFORDSHIRE drug dealer has been jailed after he was caught with cocaine and heroin.
William Harmon, 36, of Monkhide Village Road in Monkhide, appeared at Worcester Crown Court on Friday, November 10, where he was sentenced to two years and three months for possession with intent to supply class A drugs.
On July 12, Harmon failed to stop for police officers which resulted in a pursuit for several miles, involving him driving his vehicle at high speeds on narrow country roads.

The vehicle eventually crashed head-on with an HGV travelling in the opposite direction.
Officers arrested Harmon and a large quantity of cocaine and heroin was found in his car.
Detective sergeant James Moore from Herefordshire Priorities Team said: “Drug dealers take advantage of vulnerable people and ruin lives, and we are determined to protect our communities.
"I hope this sentence will give a clear message to anyone who is involved in drugs that will do all we can to stop them.
"If you have any concerns about drug crime, I urge you to contact us because working alongside our communities is a major part of tackling drug crime”.
