A STOURPORT man accused of dealing in drugs with an estimated street value of £50,000 has made a brief appearance at Worcester Crown Court.

David Butler, 27, of Calder Road, Burlish Park, was remanded in custody for a plea and directions hearing on April 4.

It is alleged that he had 10,000 LSD tablets and a small quantity of heroin in his possession when he was stopped by police carrying out a routine check close to the M5 Lydiate Ash island, near Bromsgrove.

Butler, who is accused of possessing and supplying class A drugs, had been sent by Kidderminster magistrates for a pre-trial hearing at crown court.
