Police have seized suspect cannabis plants during a warrant in Weston-super-Mare. The plants have a reported street value of around £180,000.
Officers from Avon and Somerset Police carried out the warrant at a residential address in Longbridge Way last Thursday (July 21). It came following reports from the local community of potential illegal activity.
The force found around 360 suspected cannabis plants during the search. They have since been removed from the address.
Inspector Graeme Hall said: “The calls from members of the public explaining what has been happening at that address have been invaluable to us.
“They have allowed us to build up a picture of what has been going on behind closed doors so we have been able to execute this warrant successfully and ensure these drugs did not find their way onto Weston’s streets.
“Enquiries into this matter are ongoing.”
