Man Arrested In Connection With Bangor Drug Seizure
A 34-year-old man has been arrested and a large quantity of suspected Class A, B and C drugs seized during the search of a property in Bangor, Co Down, on the morning of Saturday, 06 July.
An organised search of a house was carried out by officers shortly before 10am in the Beatrice Avenue area of the city.
As a result of the search, a quantity of suspected Class A drugs were seized along with a sum of cash, suspected Class B and C drugs, drugs-related paraphernalia, and a round of ammunition.
The items were removed for further forensic examination as enquiries remain ongoing.
Inspector Hart said: "A 34-year-old man was arrested at the property on suspicion of possession of a Class A drug with intent to supply, possession of a Class A controlled drug, and a number of other related offences.
"He remains in custody at this time as the investigation continues. Drug supply and misuse is a vicious cycle that we need to collectively break, and we all have a part to play.
"I would encourage anyone with information about the supply or use of illegal drugs to contact police on 101."
