GARDAÍ seized heroin with a street value of €70,000 during a major drug bust at Glentrasna Drive, The Glen, yesterday evening.
A man in his 50s was arrested at the scene.
The seizure was made as part of an ongoing investigation by local Gardaí, and was carried out by the Mayfield District Drug Unit, the Divisional Drug Unit, and the Dog Unit.
It is believed that he will be released today, and a file will be fowarded to the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP).
This was the second major drugs bust in Cork this week, after €20,000 of cannabis was seized in Douglas on Tuesday.
