Watch: Police use chainsaw to raid drug dealer's home
This is the moment officers used a chainsaw to quickly access the home of a drug dealer while he was sleeping.
The suspect was arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply, and in possession with intent to supply, Class A drugs.
Essex Police seized heroin and cocaine from the Colchester property in April. The man was later identified as being wanted for a knife incident in Eld Lane in the town in October last year.
He pleaded guilty to drug related charges, possessing criminal property and threatening a person with a bladed article in a public place. He was jailed for two years and six months at Ipswich Crown Court on Monday.
