A 37-year-old man, arrested by the Police Service’s Organised Crime Branch, assisted by Border Force officers, as part of a vehicle stop-and-search operation in the Larne Harbour area on Friday (August 18), has been charged with possession of a Class A controlled drug with intent to supply.

A PSNI spokesperson confirmed the man is expected to appear before Ballymena Magistrates Court on Saturday, August 19.
