TWO people have been charged after police seized £1,200 worth of cannabis from a home in Tranent.

Officers from the East Lothian Community Action Team raided the property in Well Wynd on Tuesday after receiving a tip-off from a member of the public.

They also found £1,200 in cash and other items associated with drugs supply.

Police said a 29-year-old man and 20-year-old woman were detained and have been charged with drug offences.

Inspector Andrew Harborow from Tranent Police Station said: "Once again, information from the local community has helped us recover harmful drugs before they could make their way onto our streets.

"Intelligence is vital in helping us tackle drug crime and I would urge anyone with information relating to ongoing offences in their area to contact us immediately, or make an anonymous report to the charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
