A man has been charged after cannabis worth more than £300,000 was seized in South Lanarkshire.

Under warrant, officers raided a unit within Strutherhill Industrial Estate in Larkhall on Tuesday.

A search of the premises found over 33kg of the class B drugs with an estimated street value of £336,000.

A 45-year-old man has been arrested and charged in connection with the discovery.

He is due to appear at Hamilton Sheriff Court on Wednesday.
