'Alright, alright, you got me man!' Moment police arrest cannabis gang advertising 'same day delivery service'
This is the moment police arrest a cannabis gang that offered an Amazon Prime-style 'same day delivery service'. Chaotic bodycam footage show officers storming the 'Smoke Shack' gang's drugs den in Bristol. Officers holding shields are seen chasing after gang member Jason Wilks through the home who sprints into a garden and tries to scale a fence. But police are able to grab hold of him before he escapes. As they scream at him to put his hands behind his back he is heard saying: 'Alright, alright, you got me man.' The brazen gang made branded clothing, and delivered the class B drug in a Deliveroo bag. They promoted the drugs operation on Instagram on social media and an encrypted messaging app offering 'in person' drop offs to hundreds of addresses across Bristol. The audacious gang - who even made branded clothing and stored drugs in a Deliveroo bag - would also send drugs across the country by post and made more than £100,000 a month. Jake Herault-Redman, 26, Callum Coen, 22, and Wilks, 30, all from Bristol, have now been jailed after appearing at Bristol Crown Court on Tuesday. The footage from June 2024, shows officers from South West Regional Organised Crime Unit and Avon and Somerset Police executing a warrant at an address in Eastville, which was the hub of the drug supply operation. Upon entry, Wilks ran at officers assaulting one of them before running out of the back door where he was detained. Coen and Herault-Redman were arrested a short distance from the address having also fled the premises. Numerous weapons including machetes, air rifles, knives and baseball bats were recovered from around entrances to the address and a machete was found on the floor next to where the officer was assaulted. Following his arrest, Wilks said to officers 'the only reason I didn't machete you in the head is because I heard you shout 'police''. At the time of the arrests, officers seized 7kg of cannabis, including edibles, and over £3,800 in cash. A further £13,000 of cryptocurrency was seized from Herault-Redman's address along with over £3,330 worth of designer clothes. A large number of black bin bags were at the property in Eastville and found to contain hundreds of brown sandwich bags each with a postcode and cash or crypto amounts written on them. The bags would be used to deliver drugs and payment dropped into the bag in exchange. Jake Herault-Redman, 26, and Callum Coen, 22, were also part of the 'Smoke Shack' drugs gang. The duo and Wilks have all now been jailed All three men pleaded guilty to conspiracy to supply class B drugs and acquiring criminal property, namely cash and cryptocurrency. Herault-Redman was sentenced to three years and three months. Coen was handed an 18-month sentence, suspended for two years. Wilks pleaded guilty to an additional offence of assaulting a police officer and was jailed for a total of four-and-a-half years. Acting Detective Inspector Stuart Cumine from SWROCU said: 'We estimate the group was making in excess of a hundred thousand pounds every month over a significant period of time; they even had the audacity to have 'The Smoke Shack' branded clothing made to promote their illegal trade. 'The sheer number of discarded brown sandwich bags found demonstrates the scale of their cannabis delivery service to people across the length and breadth of Bristol. 'If you're buying illegal drugs, you're not only funding organised crime groups, you are ignoring the exploitation involved in their cultivation, production and supply.'

How to get a free burger at Shake Shack this month
Shake Shack is dropping a brand new special in honor of National Burger Month. For a limited-time, the fast-food franchise will be offering a free burger to all patrons who spend $10 or more. The deal will run from the first of May until the first of June. Customers interested in receiving a free burger will have the option of choosing from one of four different styles. Right now, the chain is offering their SmokeShack, which includes applewood-smoked bacon, their signature sauce, and finely-chopped cherry peppers. The Bacon Cheeseburger, consisting of American cheese and applewood-smoked bacon, will be the free burger up for grabs from May 12 through May 18. The Avocado Bacon Burger, which just adds avocado on top of the regular bacon cheeseburger, will be available May 19 through May 25, and the original ShackBurger will be the free option from May 26 until June 1. Each customer is limited to one free burger. Interested patrons can get their free burger by ordering on the Shake Shack app or online with code 'BURGERMONTH,' or by visiting a store in-person. Shake Shack isn't the only burger joint to launch a special promotion in honor of National Burger Month. In April, Red Robin, the fast-casual restaurant chain, said it would be offering customers the chance to grab a Bottomless Burger Pass on the Red Robin website to use at any restaurant location for the duration of May, which also happens to be National Hamburger Month. These $20 black-and-gold passes will allow patrons to order one gourmet burger with a bottomless side of their choice for each day of the month. Customers will receive their specialized card in the mail, but supply is limited. What's more, Red Robin Royalty members who buy a burger and a drink during May will automatically be entered into a contest for the chance to win free burgers for the whole year. Only 12 people will be selected to win. The company already has a Bottomless Sides program in which customers can order either steak fries, garlic fries, sweet potato fries, or broccoli and receive free refills for their entire meal. Red Robin's new offers come after the fast-casual franchise reported a decrease in its 2024 fiscal fourth quarter total revenues compared to 2023. 'Total revenues are $285.2 million, a decrease of $23.8 million primarily due to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 including 12 operating weeks compared to 13 operating weeks in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023,' the company's report reads, noting that the net loss was $39.7 million in this period, up from $13.7 million in 2023. As a result of these numbers, Red Robin said it's considering closing 70 restaurants once their lease is up, which would likely happen over the next five years.
