A man has been jailed after we seized almost £4 million worth of drugs.
Conrad Byrd was arrested on 14 March this year, after he was stopped by officers from our Traffic team in Kenilworth Road, Balsall Common.
Following searches of his vehicle, officers found over 25 kilos of cocaine, with a street value of approximately £3,800,000.
As a result of the drugs being found, further searches were carried out at his home address in Sidcup, Bexley, where further kilos of drugs were found along with cash.
Byrd was arrested for conspiring to supply Class A drugs.
The 50-year-old admitted that over a 3 month period, he conducted multiple trips between the West Midlands and London in order to courier Class A Drugs for an Organised Crime Group.
After pleading guilty at Birmingham Crown Court, Byrd was jailed last Friday (13 June) for jailed for 13 years and six months.
