Man arrested at airport on
suspicion of firearm possession at airport
MERSEYSIDE Police Detectives arrested a
man following an investigation into a firearm that had been recovered in 2016,
in Huyton. We are told that a 20 year old male was arrested at Liverpool John
Lennon Airport, on Tuesday, 14 February 2017, on suspicion of firearm
possession. It is believed that this arrest is in relation to an ongoing
investigation that was launched following a stop checked in a taxi on Childwall
Valley Road, Belle Vale. Tat stop on Monday, 21 November 2016 lead to the arrest
of Dean Morgan (38), who found in possession of drugs. That arrest and further
enquiries led to warrants being executed at addresses in Topsham Road and Reeds
Road in Huyton, and the recovery of further packages of heroin and a hydraulic
press from Topsham Road, and a self loading Baikal pistol and ammunition from
Reeds Road. On Friday, 10 February 2017, Dean Morgan along with Daniel Kewley
(32), were both sentenced at Liverpool Crown Court, in relation to these
matters. Daniel Kewley was sentenced to 7 years and 4 months imprisonment for
possession of heroin with intent to supply and money laundering. Dean Morgan was
sentenced to 13 years imprisonment for possession of heroin with intent to
supply, money laundering and possession of a firearm. We now await more
information in connection to this latest arrest. |
