Three men have been charged after police in Fife recovered Class A drugs and thousands of pounds from a property in Glenrothes.
Police searched the property yesterday in Elgin Drive, where they seized heroin worth around £13,500 and £11,000 in cash.
The three men - two of which were 18-years old and the third 23-years old - were charged under the Misuse of Drugs Act.
The men are all scheduled to appear at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court today.
Detective Inspector Lynne McQuade from Fife's Proactive CID said: "The heroin we recovered would have been distributed within our communities and caused untold harm to vulnerable people.
"We are grateful for the information we receive from the public relating to drug crime and whenever intelligence comes in, it will be assessed and acted upon accordingly to bring offenders to justice.
"If you would like to report ongoing drug crime in your area then please contact us on 101, or make an anonymous report to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
