The boss of a drug gang who flooded a seaside town with £1.3million worth of cocaine has been sentenced to 10 years, after he fled from armed police through gardens before being caught in a garden shed.
Footage reveals an armed officer trying to push open a garden door before the convict Marc Kane appears climbing over a fence that borders an alleyway the police are in.
Spotting him, the officer points his gun laser at Kane and sprints after him as the drug boss jumps and scales the alleyway between the two fences and slips into the neighbouring garden.
The officer peers over the fence and points a gloved finger at Kane as the dealer awkwardly clambers over the fence, wearing a black t-shirt and blue shorts, on the opposite side of the garden.
Kane continues to speedily scramble over consecutive garden fences as the officer is given no other option but to watch on.
The bodycam footage jumps to reveal a cluttered garden shed, complete with pink, floral bunting, which the officer looks through.
Turning behind a wooden frame, a leg can be spotted hidden in the shed's corner under a grey-and-white carpet.
Cornered, Kane pushes away his makeshift camouflage and holds his hands in a praying position as a red laser dot focuses on his body.

The flushed drug dealer seemingly laments his aches-and-pains after he puts a purple pillow aside and unfolds himself, suppressing what looks like a smile.
He then accepts the officer's offer of help, taking their hand, and hoists himself to his feet.
Kane, 43, was jailed on Friday after leading a large scale drug operation that flooded Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, with cocaine worth £1.3million.
Christened the 'Tupperware Gang', the group hid large quantities of the drug in plastic containers within the hedgerows that bordered quiet country lanes.
Kane, of Coronilla Green, Gorleston, was sentenced to 10 years imprisonment at Norwich Crown Court after previously pleading guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine.
Upon sentencing, Judge Anthony Bate said he found the defendant took a 'leading role' in the operation and was 'well acquainted in class A drug dealing'.
Lori Tucker, prosecuting, said Kane had been buying and selling drugs on a 'commercial scale', with clear signs of hoping for 'significant financial advantage'.
He is the seventh Tupperware Gang member to be arrested after six others admitted last year their part in the conspiracy to supply cocaine.

Ashley Youngman, 34, Dominic Wilkins, 25, Hayder Gilgil, 20, Joe Drysdale, 31, Ben French, 49, and Michael Rushmer, 34, were jailed for a combined total of 25 years and 8 months between them.
The investigation named Operation Accent, run by Norfolk Police's Serious Organised Crime Unit, ran between March and August 2024.
Kane co-led the gang with Youngman but held ultimate control - seemingly shown by his number being saved in another drug dealer's phone as 'Coreleone', referencing The Godfather character Vito Corleone.
Danielle O'Donovan, mitigating, said Kane was 'not a lone actor' nor 'the lead actor in this enterprise'.
Kane and Youngman, among others, were arrested on August 1 2024 after a planned operation at a house on John Road in Gorleston.
Officers discovered at least 10 kilos of high purity cocaine, street valued at £1million, inside the property.
Youngman was arrested at the scene but Kane ran from the back of the house, proceeding to jump over fences and hide in a garden shed.
Surveillance from the investigation revealed the lengths Kane and Youngman would go in order to conceal their operation, including hiding drugs worth six-figures in remote 'stash sites'.

Kane flaunted his wealth despite not having a legitimate income and, following his arrest, designer clothing worth £20,530 was seized at his home.
He also spent £12,545 at the luxury label Louis Vuitton over the course of three months, bought a £22,000 Range Rover Evoque with cash and bought £17,000 worth of tickets for an online competition to win a motorbike, which he won.
Some £6,000 was spent on hire vehicles, used to move the drugs, between January 2024 and his arrest in August.
Following the sentencing, Detective Sergeant Eddie Hammond said: 'Kane and Youngman saw themselves as 'untouchable' - the fact that they are both now behind bars is testament to months of hard work by dedicated officers.
'Drug trafficking is a major source of revenue for organised crime groups.
'And while the leaders of this OCG flaunted that wealth, their enterprise brought a culture of violence and addiction to the local community.
'The fact that members of this gang have now been jailed for a total of more than 37 years sends a clear message that we will continue to target those responsible for the supply of drugs in Norfolk and ensure offenders are held accountable before the courts.'
