Where There's Smoke There's... A Grow Op

Wednesday, April 18, 2007 08:28 AM

The Prince George Fire Department was dealing with a house fire in the 800 block of LaSalle Avenue last night, but ended up calling in the RCMP. 60 mature marihuana plants were located in the basement.

Police arrested a male resident of the home a short time later. The investigation continues.

Fire crews from two halls responded to eight dumpster fires overnight. Most were in the area of Spruce Street from Strathcona to 17th avenue, but there was one near the First Litre Pub, two near the apartments, and another near the bingo hall downtown.

Police figure the firebugs were on foot or on bicycles. Anyone with information is asked to call Police at 561-3300 .

Forget rolling a joint, just smoke it in mass quantities I guess.

QUESTION TO OPINION 250.. IS IT AGAINST THE LAW TO PUBLISH THE NAMES OF THE PEOPLE WHO OWN THESE DRUG HOUSES?? IF NOT LETS DO IT.IT MIGHT PUT SOME HEAT ON THE SO CALLED GOOD CITIZENS THAT OWN THEM. MOST OF THEM KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON BUT CHOOSE TO IGNORE IT...LETS START STIRRING THE POT.
