A police spokesperson said: “Some of our response officers attended reports of a fight in Beverstone, Orton Brimbles, on Wednesday evening, but it turned out to be a whole lot more than they initially thought…

“Three individuals had been fighting outside a house when a man left, returned a short while later and started damaging the nearby vehicles.

“A man in his 30s was arrested for the damage and given a conditional caution.

“However, further enquiries uncovered a cannabis grow at the house where the fight started from!

“Another man in his 30s was arrested on suspicion of producing a controlled drug and abstracting electricity. He has been bailed until April pending further investigation.”
