Sheriff’s Office Takes Down Two Ravendale Grow Operations
Lassen County Sheriff’s Office busted two massive illegal marijuana grow operations in Ravendale, September 4th, seizing thousands of plants and eradicating the cultivation sites.
“In August of this year, Lassen County Sheriff’s Office and Lassen County Code Enforcement began an investigation into the illegal cultivation of marijuana occurring in the Ravendale area,” explains LCSO Lieutenant Wes Gray.
Personnel from the Sheriff’s Office flew two large suspected grow sites in the area, located off Tuledad Road.
“The grow sites were determined to be on two separate parcels. Both sites had approximately 18 large greenhouses, outbuildings and trailers. It was determined that marijuana was actively being grown at both sites and a search warrant for each site was issued.”
On September 4th, personnel from the Lassen County Sheriff’s Office and California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitations executed search warrants on both parcels.
“Upon arrival, Lassen County Special Weapons and Tactics Team utilized a long-range acoustic device and made several announcements and the Lassen County Sheriff’s Office Drone Team was deployed. No suspects were apprehended at either location.”
The greenhouses, outbuildings and trailers were searched with Sheriff’s Office personnel locating approximately 5,800 marijuana plants at the first location. The second location was searched and Sheriff’s Office personnel located an additional 4,200 marijuana plants. Also located at both sites were harvested marijuana.
“The marijuana found at both locations were eradicated along with the greenhouses and cultivation material used in supporting the illegal operation.”
According to Gray the owners of record for both properties will be taxed based on the size of each greenhouse located.
“The Lassen County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Lassen County Code Enforcement, Lassen County Environmental Health, Lassen County Road Department, California Highway Patrol Air Operations Division and SEMSA for their assistance with this operation.”
