2 days agoBar worker, 19, found dead in flat and three arrested
A 19-year-old bar worker was found dead at an apartment in Manchester; three people arrested in connection to drug supply have been released on bail.
Derbyshire Police said Diontai Simpson sent out "three to four messages per day" to prospective customers in Derby and Manchester. The 23-year-old, previously of Venwood Road in Prestwich, Manchester, admitted three counts of supplying cannabis, cocaine and heroin. He was sentenced at Derby Crown Court on Wednesday. Derbyshire Police said Simpson was arrested by officers who stopped a suspicious vehicle on Osmaston Road in Derby on 21 November last year. They found Class B drugs in the vehicle, and after searching an address, they discovered cannabis, cocaine, cash "and drug dealing paraphernalia such as weighing scales".
