POLICE raided a flat in Orford this morning after a tip-off about a cannabis factory.

They discovered a plantation of around 30 plants in the Poplars Avenue flat.

Police arrested a 29-year-old man following the raid.

Inspector Andy Ross said: "We are really pleased that we have got a budding mini cannabis factory which had in excess of 30 plants.

"It's a good example of working with Golden Gates Housing and it has come from information from members of the public who have expressed their concerns and it is nice to be able to show them we act on their information."
