Police on patrol make major cocaine seizure

Almost £25,000 worth of cocaine has been seized by police on patrol.

The haul, with a street value of around £24,000, was recovered in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, on Monday. A man was due to appear in court yesterday in relation to alleged drug offences.

Inspector George Cordiner said: “Tackling drug misuse is a priority for Police Scotland in the north east.

“The officers made the recovery whilst on routine patrols in Peterhead and took the necessary action which has resulted in these drugs being taken off the street.”
