BBC

Cannabis plants worth more than £130,000 have been found after police went to investigate a break-in.

Officers were called to reports of three masked men breaking through a fence in the Wingfield area of Rotherham on 27 October, South Yorkshire Police said.

When they arrived the men were nowhere to be seen but 130 plants were found growing inside the house.

Inspector John Crapper said large cannabis farms like this were “often linked to serious organised crime”.

He added: “The destruction of cultivations like this help to disrupt wider criminal activity.

“We would urge the public to report any concerns to us.”

Anyone with any information is asked to get in touch with police.
