[FastForward]

TWO men have been arrested after cannabis valued at £300,000 was discovered in Oldham.

Police went to Hopwood Mill, Lees Road, Clarksfield, at 9pm yesterday after an officer on patrol discovered the farm.

Around 1,600 plants were found. The electricity supply had been tampered with and was shut off in order to make the area safe.

Two men aged 32 and 34 were later arrested on suspicion of production of cannabis and are in police custody.

At least the British police are reasonable about what that crop would have netted. If that happened in America, the media would be saying that would have been over a $1 million of herb. But it is a shame to hear of any grow that got busted.
