Two men were arrested following a raid in East Ayrshire with police recovering drugs worth more than £28,000.

Cannabis worth tens of thousands of pounds and cocaine with a three-figure street value were found in the search on Craigie Place, Galston.

Two 21-year-old men were arrested and charged in connection with drugs offences and were released on an undertaking to appear in court at a later date.

A 26-year-old woman was also the subject of a report to the Procurator Fiscal in connection with the incident.

Chief inspector Nathan Calderwood said: “We are committed to targeting the illegal supply of drugs in our communities and hope this seizure will have a serious impact on those who make it their business to deal in this despicable trade.

“Support from members of the public is vital in our work, and all information received will be taken seriously and acted upon.

“Anyone with information or concerns about suspicious activity in their area is urged to contact Police Scotland on 101, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0880 555 111.”
