Around 3,000 cannabis plants have been discovered in a disused shop in Boston, Lincs.
The cannabis farm was spread over 4 floors of the shop and even included beds and a living area, thought to be for the use of ‘the cannabis farmers’ or those securing their investment.
The surprise discovery was made by uniformed officers on a regular patrol around the Market Place, at around 12.30am today [1st November]. The site however was unmanned when the discovery was made and therefore the guilty party have not yet been brought to justice.
Police authorities have left a scene guard in situ, and are naturally keen to hear from anyone who may have information that could lead to a prosecution.
