A QUEENSFERRY man has been jailed after being stopped with a knife in the street.

In a post made by the North Wales Police Intercept team on social media, officers share the update from court.

They state that 34-year-old Matthew Lloyd Pritchard, of Chester Road West, was jailed for 18 weeks.

The Leader previously reported that a man was arrested in Deeside for brandishing a seven-and-a-half-inch blade in public.

Concerned members of the public in Connah’s Quay alerted officers who where then able to detain Pritchard on the High Street.
