Harvey Scott, of Canning Crescent, Oxford, has been charged with two counts – one of possession with intent to supply a controlled drug of class B and possession of an offensive weapon in a public place.

The 19-year-old was allegedly caught on November 18 last year in Oliver Road, Cowley with a quantity of cannabis.
