The PSNI say officers from the District Support Team in Derry have arrested a 20-year-old man following a drugs search in the city.
Sergeant Moore said: “As part of an ongoing investigation, where £10,000 worth of suspected Class A controlled drugs was seized previously, a man was arrested in the Waterside area of the city today, Tuesday 27th August.
“A small quantity of suspected Class B controlled drugs was also seized during the arrest.
“The man was arrested on suspicion of possession of a Class B, possession of a Class B with intent to supply, attempted possession of Class A and being concerned in the supply of Class A. He remains in police custody at this time.”
Sergeant Moore added: “Targeting drugs supply is a priority for the Police Service.
“We are committed to tackling the scourge of illicit drugs, and will continue to investigate those who profit from the misery and harm they cause our community.
“We will continue to work tirelessly to tackle every aspect of drug supply and misuse across the country.
“It’s a vicious cycle that we need to collectively break, and we all have a part to play.
