150 cannabis plants found at property in Gainsborough

The plants were reported to police officers following a visit to the address by a property management company at around 10am on Wednesday, October 12.

On arrival, officers located the fully cultivated plants and identified a supply of electricity which had been bypassed.

This was later made safe by the power company.

Specialist search teams and forensics staff have remained on scene while the plants were safely removed and the building searched and secured and further evidence gathered.

Other enquiries including house to house and a number of other avenues of investigation, are also being followed.
