Clydebank man denied taxi licence after cops found £65k worth of drugs in his home

A MAN who stood trial after cops found £65,000 of amphetamines and a quantity of white powder at his Clydebank home has been denied the chance to earn a living as a taxi driver.

Colin Hilton, of Spencer Street, appeared at West Dunbartonshire Council’s licensing committee last Wednesday, seeking a temporary taxi/private hire car driver’s licence.

However, the move was rejected by the committee.

Mr Hilton’s admission was that the charges of intent to supply were found “not proven” and now he was just looking to “provide for his family”.

The meeting was told how police searched Mr Hilton’s Clydebank property and found 6.5 kilos of amphetamines, worth £65,000 in a freezer and polythene bags with “white powder”.

It was also stated that children were at home at the time. :shock:

Mr Hilton was charged with possession with intent to supply, but walked free after the charges against him were not proven.

When he appeared at the committee meeting last week, he pointed out that the home was not shared by his wife and children, who lived in a separate property
