An arrest has been made after a van stopped by police in Ramsgate was discovered to contain cannabis plants.
Shortly after midnight into today (October 1), a patrol was on duty in Hollicondane Road when they had reason to stop the vehicle.
On speaking to the driver, officers became suspicious over his responses to their questions, prompting a search of the van.
During the search, boxes and bags were found, containing soil and growing equipment, as well as a number of plants.
A 26-year-old man from Birmingham was arrested on suspicion of possessing cannabis with intent to supply. He remains in custody while enquiries are ongoing.
Ramsgate. Twinned with Columbia.
cannabis isn’t grown in columbia
Long way from home.
It’s a pity the police didn’t say “okay mate on your way” after discreetly putting a tracker on the van to see who he was delivering / collecting to or from and where did he where he drove back to. He is the obviously just a small fish from a big pound.
