On July 26 2024, officers attended an address in Swansea with the intention of arresting Shaun Gwyther. On arriving at the property, officers saw Gwyther come out of his home and cross the road to the lane directly opposite.
Officers got out of their vehicle and followed Gwyther into the lane where he was detained and arrested. During the arrest, Gwyther was seen to have two deal bags of cocaine in his hands which he dropped on the floor to try and hide. He also had a burner phone in his pocket.
Officers took Gwyther back to his home address where he said: “I have been caught red handed”.
Within the property, over 700 grams of cocaine was located upstairs in his bedroom along with £8,000 found under his bed and £900 in his wallet.
On August 28, at Swansea Crown Court, Shaun Gwyther, 26, from Mayhill in Swansea, was sentenced to four years and four months in prison for possession with intent to supply class A drugs (Cocaine), being concerned in the supply of cocaine and possession of criminal property.
