Cannabis possession has cost a woman from Bride a £250 fine.

Thirty-two-year-old Bethany Lisa Parker was caught with 2.9 grams of the class B drug at her home.

She appeared before magistrates and was also ordered to pay £125 prosecution costs.

Police were at Parker’s address, at Ayre View, on April 13, for an unrelated matter, but a search of the property found a tub of cannabis.

Police valued the 2.9 grams of the drug at £58.

In February, Parker was fined £250 for possessing cannabis and stealing cigarettes from Ramsey Co-op.

She will pay the latest fine at a rate of £10 per week, deducted from benefits, after the conclusion of her previous fine from February.
