By Q Radio News

A man has been arrested following a drugs search in south Belfast. 

A quantity of suspected Class B and Class C drugs was seized with an estimated street value in excess of £10,000.

The 28-year-old suspected was detained at a property in the lower Lisburn Road area on suspicion of possession with intent to supply. 

He’s since been released on bail pending further enquiries.  

PSNI Inspector Marcella McKay is urging anyone with information regarding the sale or consumption of drugs to get in touch with police.

"That information can sometimes be the final piece in the jigsaw that enables us to carry out searches," she said. 

"This information gives us the chance to remove drugs and other harmful substances from our community and put those responsible before the courts.

"With the continued help and support of the community, we will continue to address this issue as a priority.

"I want to take this opportunity to appeal to anyone with information about the supply of illegal drugs, or anyone who has concerns, to get in touch with us on 101 quoting reference 1574 of 04/04/21."
