�500,000 cannabis found in field
Cannabis with an estimated street value of �500,000 has been recovered from a field at L'Etacq in the Jersey parish of St Ouen.

Police say the weight of the drugs is in the region of 90 kilograms and represents the biggest seizure ever made in the island.

It is thought the drugs were dropped from an aircraft within the last few days.

No arrests have been made in connection with the find so far and officers from the island's Drugs Squad are appealing for information about the haul.
