£200,000 Cannabis Farm Discovered

Officers were called to Princes Road after two neighbouring addresses were discovered to contain the plants.

Detective Sergeant Dave Pettrick, of Middlesbrough Dedicated Drugs Unit, said: “This is one of a number of commercial cannabis farms discovered in Middlesbrough in the past twelve months. The street level value of the drugs is significant. Such activity will not be tolerated and all efforts will continue to be made to locate such operations and bring to justice those who are responsible for them.”
