One man was arrested this morning after officers discovered a suspected cannabis farm on Glendore Avenue in Weaste in an early morning raid

The man, in his 30s, was arrested on suspicion of cultivation of cannabis. He remains in police custody for questioning.

Approximately 150-200 plants were discovered in the property.

Police Sergeant Philip Metcalfe said: “This was a great result from our neighbourhood team and reinforces our commitment to tackling criminal factions on our streets.

“We will continue to shut down these dangerous farms, which can endanger those in the community with their dangerous and unsafe set-ups. We are committed to keeping the public safe and will do what we can to clamp down on illegal activities.”
