A 19-YEAR-OLD man was arrested after cannabis plants were found during a drugs raid in Ludgershall.
The warrant was executed by the community policing team at a property in Upper Chute shortly before 5pm on Tuesday.
Officers found a metal shed in the rear garden with a water supply and 11 mature cannabis plants inside.
The 19-year-old local man was arrested on suspicion of possession and cultivation of cannabis and was taken to Melksham Police Station. He was subsequently released on police bail pending further enquiries.
Sergeant Russell Griffin said: "My team have been dynamic in developing local intelligence and targeting vehicles and suspects in relation to drug related offences. Part of this intelligence picture was provided anonymously from concerned members of the public and I would encourage anyone who has information about drug misuse in their area to contact us so we can take action. We know the negative impact that drugs have on our local communities and need people to work with us to put a stop to what criminals believe is a low risk, high profit opportunity."
