A MAN in his fifties has been cautioned for growing cannabis plants in a garden shed.

He was arrested following a police raid in Ravensbury Road, St Paul's Cray.

Ten mature plants and equipment for growing them, including lamps and foil, were found in the shed at the bottom of the garden.

Officers acted on information received from people living in the neighbourhood and seized the equipment.

Inspector Nick Stratford said: "Tackling these issues is a priority for the safer neighbourhood teams. People do tell police about drugs and we will respond."
