A man has been arrested and charged after being caught with £1.1m worth of cannabis at a ferry port in Dumfries and Galloway.
A car was stopped at the Loch Ryan Port in Cairnryan around 12.20pm on Wednesday before cannabis with a street value of £1.1m was seized from inside.
A 32-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with the discovery. He is due to appear at Stranraer Sheriff Court on Thursday.
It is the second discovery at the port in the same week, after a police dog assisted officers to sniff out more than £510,000 worth of cannabis from a vehicle at Loch Ryan Port on Monday.
A 40-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with the recovery of around 51kg of cannabis.
A police spokesperson added: “Police Scotland is committed to removing illegal substances from our communities and will take all measures to disrupt those involved.
“Anyone with concerns about drugs in their community can contact Police Scotland via 101, or calling Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.”
