A 19-year-old man has been jailed after being found with a knife and cocaine in Norwich.

Isaac King, of Ryefield Road, Mulbarton, was sentenced at Norwich Crown Court on September 24 after pleading guilty to possession of a knife in a public place and possession with intent to supply a Class A drug.

He was arrested on Stepping Lane in Norwich on July 25 in connection with an unrelated offence.

During a search, officers found a large knife concealed in his waistband and cocaine with an estimated street value of £3,696.

King was taken to Wymondham Police Investigation Centre for questioning and later charged.

He was sentenced to two years in prison and ordered to pay a £187 victim surcharge.

A five-year Criminal Behaviour Order (CBO) was also imposed.

The CBO prohibits him from contacting four named associates, wearing a balaclava or face covering, entering Norwich as defined by the outer ring road and possessing more than one mobile phone.
