Heroin found during robbery investigation

DETECTIVES investigating an armed robbery have unearthed one of the biggest recent drugs seizures in Cork.

Gardaí were probing the taking of more than 20,000 euro in wages from a contractor in the Knocknaheeny area of the city on Friday night when they made the find on Tuesday morning.

It was followed by a significant amount of heroin being seized in the southside just a few hours later by the city’s drugs unit.
