The 24th annual Hight Times Cannabis Cup which takes place in Amsterdam has today for the first time in its history, been raided by police.
The Cannabis Cup is a coming together for thousands of cannabis consuming members of the public, and not just Dutch either.
The Cannabis Cup has been drawing thousands of tourists onto its streets since its inception, who between them spend tens of thousands of euro's, ordinarily with no incident worthy of mention.
But today (November 23rd) police raided the venue, insisting they will confiscate any cannabis if a person is found carrying more than 5 grams, in fitting with current dutch 'tolerance' policies.

At this stage its understood no one will be arrested, but this years Cannabis Cup is as we understand it, now prematurely closed.
