A PERSHORE man is awaiting sentence for being involved in a cocaine conspiracy.
Earlier this year Cody Johnson had denied two drug offences with a trial set for later in the year.
But on May 23, the 28-year-old changed his plea admitting to supplying class A drugs (cocaine) and class B drugs (cannabis).
Johnson, of Shaw Close, was caught by police in Evesham on January 4, 2021.
Johnson appeared at Worcester Crown Court on Tuesday, (July 4), expecting to be sentenced.

But at the start of the hearing Michael Aspinall, defending, told Recorder Francesca Levett that Johnson's pre-sentence report was not ready.
He also pointed out to the judge that Johnson's case had been reserved to be heard by Judge Martin Jackson.
The recorder asked Johnson to stand and told him to return to the court on July 18 when he will be sentenced.
