“We know drugs issues have been of concern to residents in Kettlethorpe and Wakefield Rural recently and have made some good seizures over the past few days after focusing on this issue.
“Enquires remain ongoing and targeting drugs will remain a priority for us.”
Two men have been arrested in connection with the Kettlethorpe farm and police cautioned a man after the drugs find in Ryhill.
