iStockA teenager and two men have been arrested after police seized drugs with an estimated street value of £110,000 in Greenock.
Police confirmed they made the large recovery, of what is believed to be cannabis, around 4.40pm on Thursday, January 4.
The haul was found after officers searched two cars on Carnock Street in the town.
A 15-year-old boy and two men, aged 44 and 35 years old, were arrested and charged in connection with the find.
All three were released and are set to appear at Greenock Sheriff Court at a later date.
Police confirmed that a report will be submitted to the Procurator Fiscal.
Detective chief inspector Steven Elliott said: “A significant amount of cannabis has been seized and removed from circulation.
“Such recoveries have a substantial impact on those involved in the supply of controlled drugs and those who gain financially from this type of criminality.
“Members of the public have a vital role to play in assisting us and I would urge anyone who has any information relating to drugs in their communities to contact 101.
“Alternatively Crimestoppers can be contacted on 0800 555 111, where anonymity can be maintained.”
