Police officers spot cannabis on garden plot in Wisbech

Cannabis plants have been discovered growing in a plot in a Fenland town.

Eagle-eyed officers from the Fenland Neighbourhood Policing Team came across the plants on a site in Duke Street, Wisbech, this morning (Wednesday).

The 15 plants have been seized and investigations into who the unidentified ‘gardener’ might be are ongoing.

Fenland police officers spotted cannabis plants being grown in a town garden.

In a tongue-in-cheek post to their Facebook page Fenland police said: “It was once quoted by Alan Titchmarsh ‘gardening is, apart from having children, the most rewarding thing in life’.

“Good effort, but unfortunately for this unknown gardener, it won't be as rewarding as your 15 cannabis plants now sit in our drugs property.”
