TWO Herefordshire brothers have been sentenced for drug supply that police say brought misery to the local community.

Kristian Jones-Davies, 33, and his younger brother Jared Jones-Davies, 25, both of Pump Piece in Leominster, were handed the sentences at Worcester Crown Court on Friday (April 19).

The brothers were arrested on Monday, July 3, when officers witnessed a suspected drug deal taking place in the Pump Piece area of the town. Kristian Jones-Davies was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs. Officers then gained entry to his home and found Jared Jones-Davies inside who was arrested for the same offence.
