A man has been arrested and charged after £3.8million worth of Class A drugs were recovered from Glasgow and Clydebank properties.
A large quantity of cocaine was found in a vehicle travelling on the M74 northbound around 7.15pm on Friday.
Following the recovery, warrants were issued for three properties, two in Clydebank in the Auchinleck Terrace and Concho Road areas and one in Bearsden Road, Glasgow.
The 36-year-old man is due in Airdrie Sheriff Court on Monday, March 8.
Detective Superintendent Craig Willison said: “I’d like to commend the good work of the officers involved in these significant seizures. I hope it goes some way to demonstrate our ongoing commitment to tackling the illegal supply of drugs in our communities and our efforts to bring those involved to justice.
“It might be tempting for some offenders to believe that their criminal activities can go unnoticed due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, however they are never beyond the reach of the law.
“I would encourage anyone to report any concerns around drugs or suspicious activity to the Police by calling 101 or 999 in an emergency."
