Police swooped on a cannabis farm... after smelling the fumes from their police station next door.
Officers seized 118 plants, worth more than £70,000, from the warehouse next to the station in Wishaw, Lanarkshire. Paul McCann was caught red-handed with the keys and fainted when detained by the police.
Dad-of-two McCann, 41, of Blantyre, was jailed after he admitted producing cannabis and being concerned in the supply of the drug. Prosecutor Abby Seal said he was seen putting tools in a Ford Transit van outside the building on June 18, 2020.
