A cannabis factory has been found in Dover.
Police officers who were alerted by a strange smell in the area, went to a property in Russell Street on Tuesday and found around 100 cannabis plants as well as heating and lighting equipment.
A 43-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis and theft of electricity. He has been released on bail pending further police enquiries, until July 13.
In February more than 1,770 cannabis plants were seized from a house at Folkestone Road, Dover, and a man was jailed for three years.
