Woman's apartment flooded with cannabis after neighbour throws drug farm down toilet

Woman's apartment flooded with cannabis after neighbour throws drug farm down toilet

Woman's apartment flooded with cannabis after neighbour throws drug farm down toilet
A VALENCIA woman's entire flat was flooded with marijuana buds and cut hash after her toilet backflowed because her upstairs neighbour had blocked the pipes throwing his illicit haul down the lavatory.

Gloria, who rents a home on the C/ Mediterráneo in the city, said the man living above her had kept a huge cannabis farm and police went round to inspect after the smell of the drug gave the culprit away.

He refused to open the door to officers, and instead threw buds from several hundred plants and nearly a kilo of hash down the toilet and flushed it away.

The 30-year-old man fled the property before the police got inside.

Officers found the flat, which the culprit had been renting for about five weeks, full of water, soil, empty flowerpots, and marijuana plants – of which they confiscated around 110.

But most of it ended up in Gloria's flat.

The illicit haul blocked the communal water pipes, and sewage backflowed through the plug hole in the bath and through the toilet, and leaked through the walls and ceilings.

Gloria said: “Water and cannabis pods just wouldn't stop gushing out of the lavatory, and lumps of hash came flying out. It took us two days to bail out the water and clean up, and our parqué flooring has swollen and needs to be replaced.”

Police returned the following day because one of the residents in the block had found 600 grams of cannabis wrapped in a bed sheet on the roof terrace.
