Police have seized cannabis with an estimated street value of £155,000 following raids in South Yorkshire.
Officers discovered more than 120 plants growing in a terraced house in the Hyde Park area of Doncaster and about 35 plants growing at a property in the Boston Castle area of Rotherham on Tuesday.
South Yorkshire Police said a 23-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of being concerned in production of cannabis in connection with the plants found in Rotherham and bailed pending further inquiries.
Insp John Crapper said: “Cannabis isn’t a harmless drug. It is often linked to organised crime gangs who tar our local communities with misery and violence.”
