A NEW Zealand woman has been arrested and her young child taken into care after 300 cannabis plants were seized in a series of police raids in Melbourne's outer west.

 

Police swooped on houses in Brampton Close, Delahey, about 10am (AEST) today following a two-month investigation, a Victoria Police spokeswoman said.

 

They allegedly found 102 cannabis plants at one address, arrested a 41-year-old New Zealand woman and placed her two-year-old daughter in the care of the Department of Human Services.

 

The woman was waiting to be interview by police and has not been charged.

 

More plants were found at two houses across the road, police said.

 

Acting Sergeant Paul Ziebell of the Brimbank tasking unit said the scale of the raid was a surprise.

 

"Whilst police had suspicions about one of the premises, it was surprising to find another two houses manufacturing drugs in the same street," he said.
