AROUND 600 cannabis plants worth up to £500,000 were uncovered following a property search in Brighouse.

Officers attended an address in Ship Street, Brighouse, at around 8.20am this morning, following a tip-off from community intelligence.

Upon entering the property, the cannabis plants were discovered, growing over three floors.

A 17-year-old teenager and a 39-year-old man were arrested at the scene and remain in police custody.

West Yorkshire Police Officer Dainton said: “Thanks to intelligence from the community, we were able to disrupt this cannabis farm and seize drugs that would have ended up in the community.

“We will continue to tackle this behaviour and anyone that has information that can help us take action against these criminals, please do not hesitate and get in touch.”
