Used Syringes Found Near Play Park In South Belfast
Concerns have been raised after used syringes were discovered near a children's play park in the lower Ormeau Road area in south Belfast.
Sinn Féin Councillor Deirdre Hargey said she has been concerned for some time about the rise in drug abuse in the area.
Councillor Hargey said: "When we met with senior members of the PSNI last week we raised the drugs issue with them and in particular reports we have received about drug dealing taking place in full view of residents.
"I would encourage any resident who may have any information about drug dealing to report it to the police."
