Police have seized a quantity of suspected cocaine worth £80,000 and arrested three men following the stop and search of a vehicle.
The seizures were made on Thursday, August 14 and it is understood that all three men are from Co. Armagh.
Detective Inspector McCamley said: “At around 7.50pm, officers, assisted by Road Policing Unit officers based in Enniskillen and Omagh, observed suspicious activity after a vehicle entered the Sycamore Drive area of the town.
“They located a quantity of suspected cocaine with an estimated street value of £80,000, and arrested three men aged 24, 34 and 64, on suspicion of possession of a Class A controlled drug.
“The 24-year-old man and the 64-year-old man were further arrested on suspicion of possession of a Class A controlled drug with intent to supply.
“The 34-year-old man was further arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of a Class A controlled drug.
“All three men have since been released bail to allow for further police enquiries.”
DI McCamley continued: “We will continue to be relentless in our commitment to tackle the illegal supply and use of drugs, and will continue to investigate those who profit from the consequent misery and harm.
“Drug supply and misuse is a vicious cycle that we need to collectively break, and we all have a part to play.
“I would appeal to anyone with information about illegal drug use or supply, to call police on the non-emergency number, 101.”
