Hillrise Police officers executed a drugs warrant and found “two large tents” of plants in a bedroom.

They would not disclose where in Hornsey Rise the raid took place. A suspect is set to be interviewed today.

It came two days after Finsbury Park Police found an “Amazon rainforest” cannabis farm at a property in Stroud Green Road.
