Gardaí have arrested a woman after an early morning operation saw €125,000 worth of drugs seized in Dublin.

Officers on patrol in Swords stopped a vehicle at around 12.30am on Monday.

The driver, a woman in her 30s, was discovered to be disqualified and arrested by Gardaí.

Following a search, approximately €70,000 of suspected cocaine was discovered concealed in the vehicle.

In a subsequent search under warrant of a residential property in the Swords area, gardaí discovered approximately €55,000 of suspected cannabis herb.

The drugs seized will be sent to Forensic Science Ireland (FSI) for analysis.
