During the operation, two men were arrested and police said one of them was carrying a further kilo of cocaine.
Police also searched another apartment nearby and found another 5.3 kilos of cocaine, 15 grammes of ice, and drug making equipment. They arrested a 62-year-old man who they suspect was making the drugs.
