Investigating officers PCs Jake Farrell and Levi Fensom said: “We will continue to disrupt and tackle drug-dealing in Buckingham and the wider force area, but we need the community’s support.

“Anyone with information about illegal drugs supply should report it to us via 101 or our website.

“Alternatively, you can provide information completely anonymously to Crimestoppers, which is totally independent to police, by calling 0800 555 111 or via its website.

“Ajimobi also led officers on a dangerous pursuit around Milton Keynes and breached a non-molestation order; behaviour which will also not be allowed on our patch and was reflected in his sentence.”
