The continued work across Barnsley tackling the supply of Class A drugs has resulted in a further three men being placed behind bars.
Josh Young, Dean Arnold and Jack Thomas were all handed prison sentences last week after covert policing caught them in the act of supplying heroin and cocaine between May and July 2025 for the 'Shane Line'.
In addition to the covert work, Young and Arnold were spotted by two uniformed officers being involved in a suspected drug deal. Both men were arrested and three mobile phones were recovered, alongside a quantity of cocaine and heroin. Upon analysis, one of the mobile phones recovered was found to contain the SIM card for the 'Shane Line'.
All three men appeared before Sheffield Crown Court last Friday (6 November) where they were handed a combined sentence of 10 years and four months.
