ONE MAN HAS been arrested and around €700k worth of cocaine has been seized following a search operation yesterday.
Officers said they made the arrest and seizure following what they described as the “interception of a vehicle in the Carpenterstown area of Dublin 15″.
A statement said the intelligence-led operation was carried out by officers from the Garda National Drugs and Organised Crime Bureau, supported by the Special Crime Task Force.
Around €2,900 in cash was also seized during the operation.
