A 19-year-old drug dealer has been jailed after around £1,500 worth of drugs were discovered during a police raid of his Reading home.

Cameron Gruber, 19, of Mason Street in Reading appeared at Winchester Crown Court on Friday, March 21 where he pleaded guilty to two counts of possession with intent to supply a class A drug and one count of possession of a class B drug.

This is in relation to an incident on January 4 when officers from Thames Valley Police entered his property and discovered a bundle of wraps containing crack cocaine and heroin.

A quantity of cannabis was also found in Gruber’s pockets and he was detained before being charged on January 5th.

He was sentenced to a total of two years and nine months’ imprisonment on Friday, 28 April.

Investigating officer PC Liam Steele, based at Reading police station, said: “We will not tolerate those who look to supply drugs in our communities and we will robustly target and prosecute these offenders.

“Our activity will be both visible and covert in order to disrupt those who are involved in the supply of drugs.

“Information from the public around this sort of offending in Reading plays a vital role in developing intelligence for our investigations.
