A FORMER fruit salesman is behind bars after a haul of drugs was discovered at a popular holiday park.
Henry McConville, 54, was jailed for four years and three months at the High Court in Glasgow.
Police found £40,000 of drugs after officers swooped at Craig Tara in Ayr last November.
McConville was found guilty of being involved in the supply of cocaine and cannabis following a trial. A number of McConville's relatives broke down in tears after he was sentenced.
A trial heard how cocaine and a mixing agent as well as some cannabis was found both in a caravan and in McConville's van at Craig Tara.
McConville told police he had been staying at the park while trying for a reconciliation with his wife.
