Drugs worth €2.5 million have been seized by An Garda Síochána after searches of a house in Dublin.

The drugs seized included cannabis, ecstasy, ketamine, MDMA and Xanax, following searches carried out in the Kingswood area on Thursday.

A man in his 20s was arrested in connection with the investigation.

Officers also recovered a drugs press, a mixing machine, weighing scales and storage material.
