A KINGS Worthy man has appeared in court on drugs charges for the second time in a little over a week.

Kieran Stonier, 22, of Fraser Road, has been fined for possessing cannabis on December 18. He admitted the charge.

Magistrates in Basingstoke fined him £120 with £40 costs and a £34 victim surcharge.

Last month the Chronicle reported how Stonier was arrested on July 31 last year trying to flee from police wearing only his shorts.

He admitted supplying drugs between July 1 2019 and August 1 2020 and received a 14-month sentence suspended for 18 months when he appeared at Winchester Crown Court last month.
