Two men who were caught dealing class A drugs in the Llandudno area have been jailed.
Liam Coleman, 25, of Lon Cymru, Llandudno, and Daniel Thompson, 27 of no fixed abode, appeared at Caernarfon Crown Court yesterday, Monday 9th June, after admitting to being concerned in the supply of cannabis and cocaine.
Thompson was arrested in Colwyn Bay by officers in March 2022 in connection with unrelated matters when officers discovered he was in possession of cannabis and cocaine.
He also had two phones which were seized.
The phones belonged to Coleman and Thompson and included details of messages relating to drug dealing between 2019 and 2022.
Whilst investigations were ongoing, the pair continued their contact and began dealing cocaine in 2024.
In April 2025, officers attended an address in Llandudno when Coleman jumped out of a window and ran from them. On searching the address further class A and B drugs were discovered.
Coleman was located and arrested the next day.
Coleman was jailed for four years and three months and Thompson was jailed for three years and 10 months.
District Inspector Mathew Kelly-Smith said: “We have no tolerance for those who seek to cause harm to vulnerable people who reside in our communities.
“Coleman and Thompson continued their dealing even whilst they were under investigation by police, causing further misery to those they were exploiting.
“I would urge residents to report any concerns they have about drugs in their area, we will take action on reports received and work tirelessly to take class A drugs off the streets of North Wales.”
Anybody with concerns about drugs in the area should contact police via our website, by calling 101, or anonymously via Crimestoppers.
