A man from Bristol has admitted to drug offences as well as possessing a knife. Ismail Ismail, of no fixed address, is due to be sentenced next month after admitting the offences in the Easton area.
Ismail was arrested on Stapleton Road on Monday, November 4 by patrolling officers. Police seized 176 wraps of crack cocaine and heroin. A Sur-Ron bike and more than £1,000 in cash were also seized.
The 26-year-old was charged with breaching a Behaviour Order, possession with intent to supply heroin, possession with intent to supply crack cocaine and possession of a bladed article.
He appeared at Bristol Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday, November 6 where he pleaded guilty to each charge. He was remanded into custody for sentencing on Thursday, December 5, at Bristol Crown Court.
Neighbourhood Inspector Tom Tooth said: “Ismail’s offending was spotted by officers out on patrol and he was very quickly arrested, charged and brought before the court.
“Drugs, such as heroin and crack cocaine, can devastate communities and their impact is most keenly felt by the most vulnerable in society.
“We are committed to tackling the supply of drugs and would urge anyone who has any concerns – or who notices and suspicious behaviour – to contact us so that we can take action.”
