Officers raided three neighbouring houses in Wakefield to discover cannabis farms worth a total of £135,000.

The police were told by an energy company that they had found a grow at a house on Alverthorpe Road in the city.

When officers investigated, they suspected the adjacent properties were also being used for illegal activities.

Entry was forced by the officers where they found further cannabis farms.

The police were contacted but so far there have been no reports of any arrests.
