Men jailed for drug offences in Sheffield after police find cannabis worth £12,000

David Bean, 29 of The Oval, Firth Park and Aarron Redman, 30, of Fitzwilliam Street, city centre, were arrested after officers searched a home on Halifax Road, Parson Cross, in April last year.

They found £12,000 worth of cannabis plants and a quantity of the Class B drug ready to sell.

Both Bean and Redman pleaded guilty to possession with intent to supply drugs.

Redman was sentenced to eight months behind bars, suspended for 12 months, and was ordered to complete a 60 hour unpaid work order. Bean was sentenced to six months, suspended for 12 months and was handed a 40 hour unpaid work order.

PC Paul Ward, from South Yorkshire Police, said: “Drug-related organised crime continues to be a priority in our area due to the impact it has on our communities.”
