"Patiently waiting, Johnny and June kept an eye on the delivery status and were excited when the doorbell rang yesterday [Tuesday] morning.

"'That must be the package now' Johnny possibly said.

"Unfortunately for the loved up couple, the knock came from the police and following a subsequent house search a quantity of Suspected Class B and Class C controlled drugs were found as well as a large quantity of unprescribed [sic] prescription medication and as yet unidentified white tablets.

"Johnny and June's mobile phones were also seized and are in the process of examination so no doubt in the near future some 'business partners' will have to 'Walk the Line'."

The incident occurred in Strabane, Co. Tyrone on Tuesday.
