Monday, August 5, 2024

An investigation is underway following the discovery of a substantial cannabis farm in Preston.

We were called to a property on Aqueduct Street following reports of suspicious activity.

On arrival yesterday, (Sunday 4th August, 2024), officers entered the property and discovered around 3000 cannabis plants in various stages of development which have all be seized. There was also evidence that the electricity had been bypassed.

No arrests have been made and investigations are continuing.

Operation Warrior is Lancashire Police’s response to tackling serious and organised crime in Lancashire, supported by Police and Crime Commissioner Clive Grunshaw.

It aims to target the individuals and gangs involved in crime, as well as associated issues such as violence and intimidation, large scale drug supply, exploitation, and fraud, all of which can cause serious harm to local communities.
