Watch moment Yorkshire man cried in front of police after throwing heroin stash over fence
Jordan Jackson, 26, of Elm Street, Hoyland, spotted Barnsley officers approaching his front door and thought he could outwit them by discarding his stash of heroin outside.
As Jackson launched the package in fear of the law catching up with him, officers from the Barnsley South Neighbourhood Team (NPT) were entering the rear of the property and witnessed him throwing the package over the garden fence. The act was also captured on body worn video.
Knowing he had been caught in the act, Jackson began to cry.
Following his arrest, Jackson answered no comment throughout his interview and stated he did not remember telling officers that the box contained drugs because he was ‘too emotional’.
