A cannabis farm with an estimated street value of over £380,000 together with a deactivated rifle and two gas powered air weapons have been recovered from a property in Southport.
Officers attended at the property on Cemetery Road at 11pm on Thursday 1st August to execute a warrant under the Misuse of Drugs warrant.
In total 95 cannabis plants were recovered in two rooms together with a large quantity of bagged cannabis and the weapons.
An investigation is underway and enquiries remain ongoing.
Detective Inspector Cat Walsh said: “This property contained a significant amount of cannabis plants which we have now successfully stopped reaching our streets. We are now investigating the incident and would urge anyone with information to get in please get in touch.
“Cannabis cultivation can cause serious harm in our communities. Nobody wants to live next door to a property containing a cannabis farm and we would ask that if you believe someone is using a property for this purpose, please tell us so we can take positive action and find those responsible for setting them up.
