Dean Beeching "was caught red-handed" by officers suspicious about his behaviour

A drug dealer caught hiding cocaine in his underwear has been jailed for two years and two months.

Nottinghamshire Police said Dean Beeching was driving through Hucknall on 3 October 2020 when he saw a police car behind him and pulled over, arousing officers' suspicion.

A search led to the seizure of wraps of cocaine and £900 in cash.

The 32-year-old, of HMP Ranby, pleaded guilty to possession of Class A drugs with intent to supply.

He was sentenced at Nottingham Crown Court on Tuesday.

PC Shemane Marsh, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "Thanks to the intuition of our officers, Beeching was caught red-handed."
