AN investigation has been launched after a second cannabis grow was found at Muckley Corner.

Officers had initially discovered drugs after being called to a report of a burglary at Walsall Road on 31st December. A total of 46 cannabis plants were seized.

Then, just after 9.30am on 2nd January, British Gas contacted police to report another suspected incident at a property on the same road.

Officers attended and found the remains of two grows and a stolen Peugeot car outside.

A 58-year-old man from the Lichfield area was arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis and theft of a motor vehicle. He has been released under investigation while enquiries continue.

Anyone with any information can contact police on 101, quoting incident number 521 of 31st December.
