Officers were pelted with makeshift missiles during a cannabis raid in Mansfield. Police entered an address in Portland Street, Mansfield, during the early hours of February 14, 2022, where more than 170 plants were discovered.
Officers attempted to get a man to come down from the loft after finding the property packed with plants. Despite the man initially throwing items down at the officers they quickly managed to calm the situation and safely resolve the incident which resulted in the suspect’s arrest.
Along with the plants, growing equipment were also seized after cops became suspicious after hearing fan noises and humming coming from the property. One officer described how an extractor fan was thrown at them - narrowly missing one of his colleagues.
