Heroin seized at house in O‘Malley Park

Gardai at Roxboro have made their second drug seizure this week, this time in Southill.

Drugs officers carried out searches of derelict houses in O’Malley Park around 11am this morning where they recovered around €18,000 worth of heroin. Nobody has been arrested in relation to the discovery.

A Garda spokesperson told local radio the find is “significant” due to the “nature and quantity” of the drug recovered.

It comes on the heels of Mondays recovery of amphetamine and heroin with a value of nearly €250,000 in Rathbane.
