A MAN appeared before Bolton Magistrates accused of possessing drugs, possessing an object with a blade and obstructing police.

Kevin Lambert, aged 28, of Birkdale Gardens, Bolton, admitted possessing 54 grammes of amphetamines -- valued at £120 -- but denied the other offences.

The Crown Prosecution Service described the object with a blade as a kitchen knife while Lambert's defence solicitor described it as a potato peeler.

The case was adjourned for four weeks.
