AN INVESTIGATION is under way after more than €70,000 worth of drugs, believed to be cocaine, was discovered at a fire station in Ireland.
The discovery at a Co Tipperary station is believed to have been made on January 17 and a man in his 30s was arrested the following day.
He has been released without charge and a file is being prepared for the Director of Public Prosecutions.
Gardaí confirmed the seizure and said they believe the drugs to be cocaine, "pending analysis," according to RTÉ.
In a statement, Tipperary County Council said the drugs were discovered during a "routine health and safety inspection" and they are co-operating fully with gardaí on the matter.
