- Sentinel Reporter

DEALER Ashley Bowen has been jailed after police found his drugs stash in a van.

The 34-year-old was searched and police found wraps of heroin and monkey dust. They took keys from him and used them to open a van parked outside an address in Hanley.

It contained nearly £6,000 worth of heroin and approaching £4,000 worth of monkey dust. Now Bowen has been jailed for 50 months at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court.

Prosecutor Edmund Potts said police searched and arrested Bowen at 7.40pm on March 22 as he was sitting in the driver's seat of a Volkswagen Golf in Bentilee.
