A man has been arrested after €3m-worth of cannabis was seized at a ferry port.

The drugs were discovered in a van at a ferry terminal in Cairnryan, Dumfries and Galloway, on Friday night.

A police spokesman said the cannabis was heading for Ireland, where it had an estimated street value of up to €3m.
