A MAN caught dealing cocaine in Irvine has been jailed for almost three years.

David McGarry, of Frew Terrace, admitted being concerned in the supply of the class A drug on September 25.

The 31-year-old was caught in Redburn Place by police who spotted McGarry with the drug.

McGarry returned to Kilmarnock Sheriff Court last week.

He was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison by presiding Sheriff Alistair Watson.
