'Dragonfire' police officers hiding in woods find man launching parcels into Forest Bank prison
A man has been jailed for more than two years after being caught throwing a number of prohibited items into HMP Forest Bank. Demaine York lobbed parcels containing items such as drugs, mobile phones, tobacco and screwdrivers, over the prison walls.
The motorbike rider who brought York to the woods 'panicked' and abandoned him once he realised that police were there, Greater Manchester Police said. York tried to escape but was caught and arrested shortly after. He was subsequently searched and was found to have a piece of tin foil in his pocket containing a small amount of cannabis for which he was also arrested.
A mobile phone and £146 cash were also seized. As York refused to provide comment or the passcode of his mobile phone, police say it took several months to gain access to it but a download report eventually revealed that he was heavily involved in several further throw overs. Police intelligence suggests throwers receive an average of £150 per visit.
York, of no fixed address, was sentenced to 28 months imprisonment at Manchester Crown Court yesterday after pleading guilty to conspiracy to convey List A and B articles into prison.
