A "sophisticated" cannabis farm has been discovered in Scarborough.
North Yorkshire Police officers found the growing operation spread across three floors after forcing entry to a property in Spring Bank on Wednesday.
The force said the plants, which appeared to be dying, would have been worth "thousands of pounds".
The plants owners have since been invited to "visit the police station to get a new set of keys".
