PC John Harrison from the Flintshire Priority crime team says

One male has been arrested but we are still appealing for witnesses who saw anything suspicious in the area of Ffordd y Blaenau in Treuddyn.

This is the second cannabis farm that we have recently discovered in the Flintshire area and we will continue to actively deal with any intelligence regarding the cultivation of cannabis.

The male was arrested by our police colleagues from the West Midlands police motorway traffic unit and it’s a great example of working together.
