Appeal after cannabis grow found at home

We have uncovered a cannabis grow in Stoke-on-Trent as part of our county-wide crackdown on the supply and production of illegal drugs.

Just after 3.15pm on Tuesday (12 March), we were called to a house near Hawes Street in Tunstall, following reports of a break-in.

After going to the scene, we found a small number of cannabis plants at the property.

If you have any information that can help us with our investigation, please get in touch. You can call us on 101, quoting 415 of 12 March, or message us using Live Chat on our website.

Work across the county is continuing as part of our proactive efforts to tackle organised drug cultivation in Staffordshire.
