DRUGS with an estimated street value of £150,000 have been seized by police in Kincardine.

The haul of Class A drugs was uncovered last Tuesday by Fife police officers.

Detective Chief Superintendent Garry McEwan said, “The targeting of those involved in drug dealing and organised crime is a very high priority for Fife Constabulary.

“The misery caused to local communities by this form of criminality cannot be understated, and we will use all available resources to target, disrupt and detect those involved.

“On this occasion, £150,000 of drugs has been removed from the streets, and I want this to serve as a warning to those involved in the supply of drugs within our communities that such criminal activities will not be tolerated.”

A 40-year-old man was arrested and appeared at Dunfermline Sheriff Court last week.
