Liverpool man admits possessing ketamine with intent to supply

38-year-old also had criminal cash

A Liverpool man has been remanded at the Isle of Man Prison after admitting possessing ketamine and cannabis with intent to supply.

Michael Andrew Fitzsimmons, of Huskinson Street, also had more than £2,000 of criminal cash in his possession when police searched the Airbnb he was staying at.

At Douglas Courthouse this week the 38-year-old pleaded guilty to three offences committed on 3 October.

Officers were called to an address on Erin Way, in Port Erin, after reports of a domestic disturbance.

Once there they found 89.1 grams of cannabis worth £1,700 and ketamine with a street value of between £2,480 and £3,100.

Fitzsimmons was committed for sentence at the Court of General Gaol Delivery.

There was no application for bail and he will next appear in that court on 4 November.
