GLOUCESTERSHIRE, England, Dec. 25 (UPI) -- Police officers in England made an amazing discovery when doing a drug raid: marijuana plants decorated in the form of a Christmas tree.

On Wednesday, Gloucestershire police raided a house in the town of Cheltenham. They found a small cannabis farm that included the tree.

A man and woman were arrested on suspicion of cultivating cannabis. They posted bail with a hearing scheduled for February.

Drugs and equipment also were seized in the raid.

The police department got in a festive mood by posting a photo of the tree on Twitter with the words: Not your traditional Xmas Tree! Glocuestershire police are looking to combat the illegal operation as part of Operation Emperor.
