A Northumberland drug dealer was found to have a cannabis farm hidden in his loft.
Police discovered up to £2,800-worth of the class B drug when they searched Daniel Thorpe's home in Bedlington. The remains of a cannabis farm, including lights, heaters and plant pots, were also found as well as a set of scales, a court was told.
The 30-year-old, of Victoria Terrace, in Bedlington, was arrested and has now been given 12-month community order after he appeared at South East Northumberland Magistrates' Court to plead guilty to possessing a class B drug with intent to supply and production of cannabis.
