A man has admitted threatening two police officers with a gun.

At Manchester Crown Court yesterday, Adrian Lee Taylor, 27, of Lonsdale Street, Bury, admitted possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear of violence and possession of cocaine with intent to supply.

He is due to be sentenced on Friday September 25.

At 5.30am on March 12, two officers, a detective constable and a detective sergeant from Bury CID, went to Taylor's home.

He opened his door and pointed a black handgun at one of the officers.

Taylor then shut the door before coming outside having hidden the weapon.

He was arrested and a gas powered pistol and 7g cocaine, valued at £200 were recovered.
