Glasgow Daily Record, UK

FORMER Bay City Roller Les McKeown posed as a builder when drug cops arrived at his home to arrest him, a court heard yesterday.

Asked if he lived at the house in Hackney, London, McKeown allegedly said: "No. I'm a builder helping to do up the place."

But one of the armed police team replied: "Hello, Les."

The court heard that one of the officers on the raid found white powder, which turned out to be cocaine, wrapped in a till receipt in McKeown's wallet.

But McKeown, 50, allegedly told him: "You have just put that there. I have never seen it before. You are all sad c****. I have never seen it before, fat boy."

The court heard that one of the police then told McKeown: "Les, you are obviously pi***d".


Nice try
