Spanish fans watching the Vuelta a Espana over the weekend were left shocked when two marijuana plantations suddenly appeared on their screens.
As a helicopter tracked the cyclists during the final moments of the eighth stage of the race, the birds-eye view shot panned over an apartment rooftop growing 40
marijuana plants spread out across two plantations.
Screenshots of the video, which was aired live, has since emerged on social media.
Police say they have seized the plants which had reportedly been left abandoned on the rooftop and no one has yet been arrested.
