Oliver Hargreaves, 24, of no fixed address, was jailed for seven years at York Crown Court on Tuesday 6 October for supplying heroin and crack cocaine in Tadcaster. North Yorkshire Police and West Yorkshire Police worked together to catch him during an early-morning raid at a property in the Gipton area of Leeds in May.
During the raid, Hargreaves threw his mobile phone out of a window in an attempt to distance himself from the evidence against him. He was arrested and interviewed, then charged with being concerned in the supply of crack cocaine and heroin between December 2025 and April 2026, along with possession of cannabis.
Hargreaves pleaded guilty to all the offences. North Yorkshire Police said it would 'work relentlessly with other police forces to investigate and disrupt those involved in the supply of illegal drugs in our area'.
