A drug dealer was caught by police red-handed and red-faced in a wood - with 27 wraps of heroin and crack cocaine between the cheeks of his bottom.

At Bro Dirion, Holywell he also had an axe for his own protection in a shoulder bag.

Caernarfon crown court heard as John Clarke, 30, of Connaught Way, Birkenhead, was jailed for 45 months. He pleaded guilty to having the drugs worth £270 with intent to supply, having an axe and also possessing cannabis.

The father of three had been jailed for eleven months in 2014 for having cannabis with intent to supply. Judge Rhys Rowlands told him: "You knew the risk you were prepared to take."
