iStockA man and a woman has been arrested after police seized a six-figure haul of cannabis and cocaine in The Highlands.
Officers recovered the drugs after they attended a property on St Andrews Road in Dingwall around 10.10am on Wednesday.
Police said that cannabis and cocaine with an estimated street value of around £218,000 was seized at the property.
A 47-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with drug offences.
He appeared at Inverness Sheriff Court on Thursday.
The force said a 57-year-old woman was also arrested but released without charge.
Detective inspector Robin Sim said: “This is a significant recovery which underlines our commitment to the Serious Organised Crime Taskforce and the country’s Serious and Organised Crime Strategy.
“We will always pursue every means possible to disrupt individuals bringing drugs into our communities for their own illicit gain.
“The public has an important role to play in this and we encourage anyone with concerns or information about drugs to get in touch with officers via 101 or make a report anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
