Man arrested after £270,000 haul of drugs found in Scots house

Cocaine and cannabis worth over a quarter of a million pounds has been found by police in a Scots house.

A property in Cumnock, East Ayrshire, was raided by officers on Tuesday evening acting under warrant where a huge quantity of drugs was found with an estimated worth of approximately £270,000.

A 36-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the seizure. He was due to appear at Ayr Sheriff Court yesterday.

Detective Sergeant Terry McEwan said: “Combatting drugs remains a high priority for us. This recovery is the result of officers working together with local communities and acting on the information provided to us.

"If you have any concerns regarding criminality in your area, please contact us in the assurance that we will act accordingly.”
