A massive cannabis operation was uncovered in Grimsby, leading to two arrests and an ongoing police investigation
They arrested two guys during a raid. One even tried to run away! The police were on it after locals noticed a strange smell.
The store had been empty since September 2023. It’s a huge space, about 34,000 square feet. That’s a lot of room for a grow operation!
Officers are still clearing out the plants. They say this is one of the biggest grows ever found in the town.
A police spokesperson mentioned that a 48-year-old man was caught inside. He’s suspected of supplying drugs.
The other guy, 33, was nabbed nearby after trying to escape. He’s in trouble for cultivating drugs and trespassing.
Police are keeping a close watch on the area. They want to gather all the evidence and find out who else is involved.
If anyone has info or footage, they should call the police. They’re serious about tackling drug issues in the community.
