Nearly 4,600 pot plants were seized by SBPD Officers, and one arrest was made. Due to the ongoing investigation, the name of the suspect remains anonymous for now.
As a result, “The nine units were red-tagged by the building inspector,” said SBPD Community Engagement Officer Eileen Hards.
Safety issues will be addressed and code enforcement will follow up with the property owner to resolve issues.
San Bernardino PD Investigators are handling the ongoing investigation.
