Possession of Class A and B drugs has cost a Milford Haven man £555.

Barry McElroy, of Willow End, pleaded guilty to possession of 0.32grams of cocaine and 0.2grams of cannabis when he appeared before Haverfordwest magistrates on Tuesday, December 11.

The court heard that the drugs were discovered when police executed a search warrant at McElroy’s home on July 20.

McElroy, 44, made full admissions when interviewed and told officers the substances were for his own personal use.

Abul Hussain, prosecuting, said McElroy had previous drug related convictions, and the offence put him in breach of a conditional discharge.

Jonathan Webb, defending, told the bench that the amounts found were very small.

Magistrates ordered McElroy to pay a total of £555 in fines, costs and a surcharge.

A destruction order was made for the seized drugs.
