Two men have been arrested after police raided a former bank on Kirkcaldy’s High Street.
Officers carried out a “pre-planned operation” at the old Royal Bank of Scotland building on Monday morning.
The men, aged 25 and 31, were arrested in connection with drug offences.
At least five police vehicles, as well as uniformed and plain clothes officers, were at the scene.
One man working close to the vacant bank building told The Courier a “large” police presence had been at the premises.
He said: “I saw at least five police vehicles stationed at the back entrance to the building.
“There was a large number of uniformed officers as well as plain-clothed detectives entering and leaving via the back entrance.
“A couple of officers also stood guard.
“Clearly something significant has happened or been discovered.”
