In early December 2011 the Prince George RCMP received information from the public regarding a possible grow operation at a residence on the 13000 block of Lund Road. As a result of the information received, an investigation was initiated.
On Feb. 17 at approximately 10:30 a.m., members of the Prince George RCMP general duty section with assistance of downtown enforcement unit, police dog service and forensic identification service, executed a search warrant on the residence, east of Prince George.
Located during the search were 900 marijuana plants at different stages of growth.
No one was located in the residence at the time of the search. The investigation is still ongoing.
This investigation is part of the Marijuana Grow Initiative, the RCMP's national strategy to combat marijuana grow operations and the organized crime groups running them in our communities.
