A man has been arrested after cannabis plants were discovered during a raid on a property in Mapperley.
The Gedling South Neighbourhood Policing Team executed a misuse of drugs act warrant at an address on Hickling Road.
The raid took place on Friday (29) morning after officers received reports from the public.
Officers forced their way into to the address and over 200 cannabis plants were found.
They also discovered the electricity had been bypassed.
A 20-year-old male was located and was then arrested.
A spokesman for Nottinghamshire Police said: “The cultivation of cannabis is dangerous not only to the property and people at the address but also to the wider community with the risk of fire.
“Cannabis cultivation and drug dealing are often linked to serious violence, anti-social behaviour and puts our wider communities at risk.
“As we’ve continued to show with our enforcement activity, we are listening to what people are telling us about the issues most of concern to them and we are taking positive action to address those concerns.
“Information from local people is key to our ongoing work so we would urge the public to keep reporting to us because the more information we get, the better intelligence picture we can build and the more robust action we can take.
“We really value information supplied by the public and will always act on it, where appropriate, to make our communities safer.”
