A Letterkenny man was found in possession of cocaine on two separate occasions, the local District Court has heard.
Gardaí were on patrol when they were alerted to the behaviour of two males at the Glencar Inn, Letterkenny, on October 28, 2024.
A bag of white powder was uncovered which turned out to be cocaine valued at €5. Felix Connors, with an address at 7 Canal Road, Neil T. Blaney Road, was subsequently charged with the offence.
Garda Sergeant Jim Collins detailed the second incident when the defendant was apprehended with cocaine valued at €70 in a room at the Radisson Blu Hotel at Paddy Harte Road on November 4, 2024.
Defending solicitor, Michael Shiel said his client was fully cooperative on both occasions and the drug had been for his own personal use.
Judge Emile Daly fined the defendant €400 on the second offence and took the other matter into consideration.
