A cocky drug dealer tried to run from police while carrying massive amounts of heroin, cocaine and cash.
Daniel Carroll thought he could casually walk down the street with the huge haul of drugs but was quickly spotted by officers before he ran off.
The 21-year-old, of Oakhill Park in Old Swan , tried to run away when he saw the police officers coming towards him on Crellin Street in Barrow.
When the police caught Carroll he was found with heroin, crack cocaine and ketamine worth a staggering £1,200 along with £500 in cash.
Carroll was arrested under the Misuse of Drugs Act before being sentenced at Preston Crown Court on Friday, March 13.
A spokesperson for Cumbria Police said: "A man from Liverpool has today been jailed for three years nine months after being found guilty of drugs and money laundering offences.
"Daniel Carroll, 21, of Oakhill Park, Liverpool, appeared at Preston Crown Court today (13 March) where he was sentenced after being found guilty of two counts of possession with intent to supply a class A drug, possession of criminal property and possession of a Class B drug.
"Carroll was arrested on the 20th January 2020 when he attempted to run away after spotting two police officers while he was walking along the Crellin Street area of Barrow.
