A 32-year-old woman has been arrested following a search of a property in Carrickfergus which led to the seizure of suspected drugs.
Officers from the Paramilitary Crime Task Force (PCTF) seized the suspected Class A and Class B controlled drugs following the search of the property in Edenvale Avenue on Sunday (November 20). A quantity of suspected cannabis edibles and sum of cash was also recovered during the search.
Detective Chief Inspector Avine Kelly said: “A 32-year-old woman has been arrested on suspicion of a number of offences including possession of a Class A controlled drug, possession of a Class A controlled drug with intent to supply and possessing criminal property.”
She has since been released on police bail to allow for further police enquiries.
“The PCTF will continue to work with our Mid and East Antrim District Commander and local Police colleagues to tackle the supply, use and harm caused by illegal drugs through organised criminals.”
The Detective Chief Inspector said the support of local people is essential in helping police to remove illegal drugs from the streets and put those who seek to profit from them in prison.
“I would urge anyone with information or concerns about the supply or use of illegal drugs to contact police on 101 or to submit a report online using our non-emergency reporting form via http://www.psni.police.uk/makeareport/.”
