Frank Donaghy jailed for drug and road traffic offences
A 49-year-old man has been sentenced at the High Court in Glasgow in connection with drug and road traffic offences in Glasgow.
On Monday, 6 January, 2025, Frank Donaghy was jailed for three years and nine months for drug supply and dangerous driving. He was also banned from driving for six years and nine months.
On Tuesday, 9 April, 2024, Donaghy deliberately drove his car at two unmarked police vehicles in Drummore Road, Drumchapel. This resulted in two officers being injured and taken to hospital.
Donaghy was arrested and heroin worth an estimated street value of £96,000 was recovered.
Detective Superintendent Steven Elliot said: "Donaghy was willing to endanger police officers and the public to escape justice and he now faces the consequences. This sentencing also highlights our ongoing commitment to disrupting the illegal and harmful supply of illegal drugs in our communities.
"There is no place for this type of criminality and such operations underline our commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country's Serious Organised Crime Strategy.
“Information from the public is absolutely crucial to our work. We would continue to urge anyone with knowledge or concerns about drugs activity in their area to contact Police Scotland on 101. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
