A HEREFORDSHIRE woman has admitted being in possession of heroin and cocaine.
Carrie Mccleod, 38, was caught with 0.18 grams of cocaine and 0.89 grams of heroin on February 14.
She was also found to have been in charge of a motor vehicle with a proportion of benzoylecgonine, a metabolite of cocaine, in her system that was over the legal driving limit.
When she appeared at Hereford Magistrates’ Court earlier this month she pleaded guilty to one count of possessing cocaine, one count of possessing heroin and one count of being in charge of a motor vehicle with a proportion of a specified controlled drug above the specified limit.

According to court documents, Mccleod had greater than 800 micrograms (mg) of benzoylecgonine per litre of blood. The limit is 50 mg.
She is not accused of driving under the influence of drugs, but was said to have been “in charge of a motor vehicle”.
Mccleod, of Westhope Hill, has been remanded on unconditional bail ahead of her sentencing on October 8.
