A 37 year-old man's been charged - after a cannabis farm worth £125,000 was found in Hull.

Police found around 200 plants in a property on Appin Close in Bransholme on Friday.

The man's been charged with cultivation of cannabis and abstracting electricity.

Neighbourhood Beat Manager PC Rose Waller said: “This discovery and the dismantling of the cannabis grow means that a quantity of class B drugs have been stopped from entering the local drugs market, making our communities and streets a safer place.
