A 20-YEAR-OLD man who admitted two drug dealing offences will be sentenced later this month.

Lewis Mackie, who gave an address in Edinburgh, pleaded guilty to being concerned in the supply of heroin and cocaine.

Both offences took place at an address in Galashiels’ Beech Avenue and elsewhere between December 1, 2020 and December 16, 2021.

Mackie, who appeared at Selkirk Sheriff Court via a video link from custody, also admitted possessing a prohibited weapon, namely a canister of CS spray. Sentence was deferred for background reports.
