    Sambou Kassama did his best to evade officers by throwing his drugs out a window and jumping from the first floor of his house.

    But he was found hiding in a neighbour’s garden and now he’s in jail.

    A police investigation revealed that the 27-year-old from Ely, Cardiff, had been running two drug lines in the area, dealing crack cocaine and heroin.

    On July 4, 2024, officers conducted a warrant at his home address.

    Drone footage captured the moment Kassama discarded drugs out of a back bedroom window before jumping and running away.

    He was arrested and later pleaded guilty to two counts of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs, two counts of being concerned in the supply of Class A drugs, and possession of Class B drugs.

    Kassama was sentenced to 4 years and 4 months at Cardiff Crown Court on Tuesday,  September 17, 2024,
