Police have seized drugs with an estimated street value of £860,000 in Co Down.

Suspected cocaine and cannabis were discovered following the search of a property in the Carrigenagh Road area of Kilkeel.

A PSNI spokesman said: “Our officers will continue to protect communities from the harm of illegal drugs.

“As a result of this excellent police work, a large quantity of suspected dangerous controlled drugs are now safely off our streets.

“Drugs have no place in our community and I am making a direct appeal to anyone with information about the illicit supply, possession or misuse of drugs to contact us on the non-emergency number 101.

“The seizure demonstrates our commitment to keeping local communities safe from this type of criminality and removing these illegal substances from our streets.”
