Dozens of cannabis plants were seized and destroyed after police responded to reports that a house had been broken into. Officers were called to an address in Stanley Street, Worksop, at around 10pm on Tuesday, April 5, after reports of a disturbance.
The illegal plants were discovered in multiple rooms inside, along with a host of growing, lighting and heating equipment. All have since been removed.
Inspector Hayley Crawford, district commander for Bassetlaw, said: “Drug-related crime is a blight on our community and we are working hard every day make life as difficult as possible for those who produce drugs and sell drugs on our streets. Cannabis grows of this nature pose a considerable fire risk to neighbouring properties.
