HEROIN and cannabis with an estimated value of £55,000 have been seized in Kincardine.

Police swooped on the village on Friday and arrested a 27-year-old man and a 43-year-old woman after searching addresses in Rosebank Gardens and Mercer Street.

The pair are expected to appear at Dunfermline Sheriff Court this morning after detectives from the Fife division's Proactive Unit recovered 550g of heroin and 40g of cannabis.

Detective Constable Brendon Moyles said: “This action again demonstrates our commitment to acting on local concerns and tackling the supply of controlled drugs.

"Information from the public is vital in helping us to prevent the harm that drug misuse causes to both the individual and the wider community.

"If you have any information or concerns about drug misuse, I'd encourage you to contact us on 101 or make an anonymous report to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
