22-year-old arrested after £7k of cocaine found in Bangor

A man has been arrested after £7,000 worth of suspected cocaine and a quantity of cannabis was found at a property in Bangor.

The PSNI searched a property in the Ashbury area today, uncovering quantities of cocaine and herbal and resin cannabis.

A 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of number of offences, including possession of a class A controlled drug with intent to supply and possession of a class B controlled drug with intent to supply.

Sergeant Tracy Ormesher said: "Police Service NI is committed to disrupting the supply of, and removal of illegal drugs from our communities, as well as arrest those who continue to harm people by selling them.

"Tragically, too many families and too many communities throughout Northern Ireland have paid a heavy price as a result of the illegal drugs trade. Families have lost their loves ones. The impact has been cross cutting.

"If you have information about the manufacture, sale or supply of illegal drugs please get in touch with us by calling 101 or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime. Your actions could make a difference."
