North Cork gardaí seize €42k of head shop drugs

Gardaí are carrying out a series of anti-drugs operations in North Cork as part of a follow up to seizing a consignment of suspected mephedrone.

The drug, which was once associated with controversial head shops, was seized in Rathcoole in North-West Cork by members of the Kanturk District Drugs Unit.

Gardaí said the seizure was made as part of “a planned operation targeting the sale and supply of controlled drugs” after they stopped and searched a car at 11.30am on Tuesday.
