He also admitted to one count of possessing a Class A drug – namely cocaine – on the same day.
The magistrates issued a £300 fine and told him to pay court costs of £85 and a victim surcharge of £120.
A forfeiture and destruction order was made for the drugs.
In 2013, a teenage Cadogan was found guilty of stealing a handbag and sentenced to carry out 80 hours of unpaid work.
