Police dismantled a substantial marijuana grow operation following the raid of a home on Penticton's Roy Avenue.
The Penticton RCMP Drug Task Force executed a search warrant on the home on Wednesday, seizing 171 marijuana plants, cash, drug trafficking paraphernalia and marijuana grow equipment.
A 32-year-old Penticton man was arrested in connection with the grow-op and was released to appear in Penticton court at a later date. Police are recommending charges of cultivation of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana for the purpose of trafficking.
