CLASS A drugs with a street value of more than £10,000 have been seized by police in Lerwick on Wednesday.

A 20 year old man has been arrested as part of the intelligence-led operation.

A spokesman said the police operation was assisted by the Dogs Against Drugs charity.

Inspector Lindsay Tulloch said: “Drugs are a blight that are present in all communities, including the islands, and we are determined to deal with the issue on Shetland robustly with help from the public and our partner agencies.”
