A MAN from Burton has been charged after cannabis with a street value of nearly £5.5 million was allegedly seized during police raids.
Almost 1.5 tonnes of the Class B drug was found at a property in Tamworth-in-Arden, near Solihull, and an address in Shenstone, last week.
Investigators found 900kg of the drug in a garage at the first property, and a further 500kg at the second.
