Taxi driver jailed on drugs charges

A taxi driver who stashed cannabis worth €2.75m in a ditch behind his home has been jailed for six years by Judge Kevin Haugh at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court.

Donal Creamer, a top official at the well-known north Dublin GAA club Fingallians, was offered €1,000 by a man he picked up in his taxi to hold on to a bag containing the drugs.
