A WIDNES man has appeared in court accused of drug dealing.

Darren Blease-Maguire, of no fixed abode, was arrested on Wednesday, February 15, after he was stopped by officers on Cambridge Street during a routine stop check.

Following questioning the 20-year-old was charged with one count of possession with intent to supply class A drugs and one count of possession with intent to supply class B drugs.

He appeared at Warrington Magistrates' Court this morning.

But due to the severity of the charges the case has been transferred to Liverpool Crown Court on March 16.
