BBC News

---
Hundreds of cannabis plants worth £250,000 have been seized during a
raid on a house on Tyneside.

Police said they found a total of 560 mature plants in every room in the
house in Ladykirk Road, Benwell, Newcastle, following a tip-off.

They also found drug cultivating equipment including fans and generators
during the raid on Wednesday.

Police believed they have smashed a "professional" drug supply
operation. No arrests have been made.

Northumbria Police neighbourhood Inspector, Jerry Barker said: "This was
a substantial seizure of cannabis and we have disrupted a professional
operation.

"We are now following up several lines of inquiry to trace those behind
this farm.

"We will continue to target the small minority who bring misery to
neighbourhoods by cultivating and dealing in drugs."
