A CANNABIS farm with over 500 plants was found on the outskirts of Droitwich.

Three rooms full of hundreds of plants were found on the Rushock Trading Estate last weekend.

Officers from Wyre Forest Safer Neighbourhood Team executed a drugs warrant at an address on the estate and have now seized and destroyed the plants. 

No one was at the premises at the time of the warrant and no arrests were made but enquiries are ongoing.

Chief Inspector David King of Wyre Forest Police said: “Acting on community concerns and intelligence, we executed a drugs warrant at an address on the Rushock Trading Estate between Kidderminster and Droitwich on Saturday (April 20).

“Though no arrests were made, enquiries are ongoing into this cannabis grow.

“Grows such as this one are linked to serious and organised crime, and we will always act on intelligence to shut down criminal operations like this, which have a harmful impact on the communities we protect and serve.”
