A man has been arrested after the seizure of cannabis worth thousands of pounds in Dundee.

Officers from the Lochee community policing team carried out a drug search warrant at a property in the Milnbank Road area on Thursday afternoon.

They found and seized cannabis with an estimated street value of between £70,000 and £90,000.

A 33-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with the find, and is expected to appear at Dundee Sheriff Court at a later date.
