Two people were appearing in court at Eastbourne today on drug dealing charges.

James King, 32, and Dionne Clarke, 38, both of South Avenue, were arrested on Monday morning after police raided a house in the resort's Old Town.

They were appearing before town magistrates today charged with possessing class A drugs with intent to supply.

The pair are alleged to have had around £50,000-worth of heroin and crack cocaine.

King was also charged with committing a burglary in Ceylon Place, Eastbourne, on July 18, when £1,200 worth of camera equipment was stolen from a 65-year-old.
