The 20-year-old had 30 deals worth of Class A drugs, Mrs Fowler said.

Wilson, of Ashenhurst Close in Newsome, appeared at the court in custody after failing to show up for his first hearing last month.

He is charged with possession with intent to supply heroin and crack cocaine as well as possessing criminal property, namely £374 in cash.

Mrs Fowler told magistrates that as the offence involved street dealing their sentencing powers were not adequate to deal with the case to conclusion.

They committed Wilson to Leeds Crown Court where he will first appear on May 10.

He was released on unconditional bail in the meantime.
