UK: Police raid uncovers 500 cannabis plants

The Press, York

Wednesday 19 Sep 2012

A LARGE cannabis farm with more than 500 plants was uncovered in a drug swoop in North Yorkshire.

Officers raided an address in Copgrove, Harrogate on Tuesday, carrying out a warrant under the Misuse of Drugs Act and seized the plants as well as hydroponic equipment used to cultivate the cannabis.

The investigation to identify and arrest those responsible is ongoing.

Detective Sergeant Jason Marchant, of Harrogate CID, said: "This was clearly a sophisticated operation run by professional criminals.

"This seizure has removed a significant amount of drugs from the supply chain.

"I want the raid to send a clear message to anyone involved with the production and supply of illegal drugs that their activities will not be tolerated.

"North Yorkshire Police will act quickly when we receive intelligence to disrupt criminal behaviour at every level."

DS Marchant is appealing for anyone with information about those responsible for running the cannabis farm to come forward.
