The PSNI in Ballymena found a number of drug related items near Deerfin Way this week.
Officers posted images on social media of the area:

The Police has appealed to parents to ensure they're aware of their children's whereabouts at all times, so they do not find themselves exploring in an area like this.
Mid and East Antrim Council and the PCSP has been working to clear the area this morning.
A spokesperson for the police also said the issue is not only in the Deerfin Way area of Ballymena, this type of activity is ongoing in other parts of the town.
