Suspected cannabis grow discovered following fire in Heanor
A suspected cannabis grow has been discovered at a property in Heanor following reports of a fire.
Police were called just after 3.50am on Tuesday 5 December to the incident at Holbrook Street by Derbyshire Fire & Rescue Service.
Fire crews tackled the blaze at the house, and after the flames had been extinguished a number of plants were found being cultivated at the property.
No one was found to be at the address, and no one has reported suffering any injuries, but substantial damage has been caused to the house and a neighbouring property.
At this time, it is believed the fire was caused by an electrical fault.
An investigation is being carried out and police would like to hear from anyone who may have any information or noticed any suspicious activity in the area over the last few days or weeks.
