A MAN was arrested after officers found 83 cannabis plants in his home.

Officers from Upper Edmonton Safer Neighbourhoods team searched the house in Lancaster Road, Enfield, after local intelligence suggested he might be growing the plants there.

They found the plants along with electrical equipment which helped cultivate them.

A 44-year-old man was arrested at the scene for cultivation of cannabis and abstracting electricity.

He has been bailed until June 22 pending further enquires.
