Police arrest man after raid uncovers firearms stash

A MAN has been arrested over an arms cache in a notorious gangland area to the north of Glasgow.

The 56-year-old was detained by detectives after the haul was seized in a dawn raid on a house in Milton of Campsie in East Dunbartonshire.

Police discovered several firearms and thousands of rounds of ammunition and are now investigating whether there is any link to a similar discovery in a quiet suburb of Bearsden in April.
