RESIDENTS of apartments in Letterkenny have praised Gardai for busting a drugs operation there.
Officers moved into the Burnside apartments yesterday as part of an ongoing crackdown on a suspected drugs gang in the town.
One man was arrested and drugs seized.
It’s understood the search followed the granting of a warrant at Letterkenny court.
A number of residents contacted Donegal Daily to thank Gardai for the crackdown.
“This is a good place to live but recently there has clearly been something going on in one of the apartments with up to seven people living there and people coming and going at all hours,” said one resident.
“Thank God for the guards; maybe the place can return to normality again.”
Another resident told us: “Drugs are a scourge on Letterkenny and for those who think they’re ok, they should try living beside their dealers. It’s awful.
“I was delighted to see the guards here.”
