Dear Resident,

A cannabis grow in Telford has been discovered after officers responded to a house fire in Sutton hill. 

At around 7.25pm on Thursday 18th April, officers responded to reports of a house fire on Stanwyck in Sutton hill.

The fire service were already at the scene when officers arrived, where it had been discovered that around 150 fully grown cannabis plants were inside, along with 300 infant plants.

No one was in the property and luckily the fire was put out by the fire service before it could spread to other properties. No arrests have been made and inquiries into the grown continue.
