Gardaí had been on patrol at approximately 9.30pm in the Ferdia Park area of Ardee when they stopped a car. And at one stage during the operation, gardaí observed a package being thrown from the vehicle in the Corbollis area on the N52. When gardai recovered the package they discovered the approximately €30,000 of suspected cocaine. The containment operation eventually ended on the N52 at Clonkeehan “following an intervention by gardaí to stop the offending vehicle”, with no injuries reported. The seized drugs will be taken to Forensic Science Ireland (FSI) for analysis.
