Kern County Busts Big Marijuana and Guns | Fresno News

Kern County law enforcement just pulled off a massive crackdown, raiding two locations in Maricopa and Taft—uncovering nearly 1,000 marijuana plants and over 50 pounds of processed weed at one site alone, plus a loaded handgun. Two suspects, both 27, were arrested on drug and firearm charges. In Taft, the haul was even bigger: nearly 650 pounds of processed marijuana and two more loaded guns, leading to the arrest of a 58-year-old man also facing serious charges. This bust proves illegal cannabis operations—and firearms trafficking—are still thriving. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
