Askam man jailed for class A drug offences
A FURNESS man was sentenced to five and half years imprisonment today in Barrow Crown Court.
David Charles McCormick, aged 38, of Plover Close, Askam-in-Furness admitted to two separate offences of possession with intent to supply Heroin and possession of Heroin, a class A drug. He was sentenced to 66 months imprisonment.
