Tipperary gardaí uncover massive cannabis growhouse in Lorrha area

The gardaí in Tipperary are continuing their investigations into a suspected cannabis growhouse in the north of the county.

The discovery at Lorrha on the Tipperary / Offaly / Galway border was made last Monday evening.

A search warrant was executed and close to 100 suspected cannabis plants were seized.

The seizure could have a potential value of several hundred thousand euro, subject to analysis.

The scene was preserved as part of the investigation, which gardaí in Nenagh say is at an early stage.
