This morning, we conducted a warrant on Shore Road in Hesketh Bank and found a cannabis set up, as well as suspected cocaine.

Cultivation of cannabis can have a major impact on local communities, often with links to modern slavery and organised crime groups.

There was also evidence that the electricity meter had been bypassed; this is extremely dangerous and a fire risk to surrounding properties. as well as suspected cocaine found. 

As part of this warrant we arrested a 60-year-old man on suspicion of supplying a controlled drug, possession of a Class A drug, abstracting electricity.
