Ohio police have successfully raided a sixteen years old minor, staying with his parents,
where they found a 16-year-old in possession of $6000 and high grade Marijuana. The unnamed accused “being a minor his name was not released” arrested was running a multimillion dollar ring that distributed high-grade marijuana through two school districts and netted $20,000 a month.
Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said the boy will be tried as juvenile. The first breakthrough came last year when cops found a high-grade hydroponic strain of marijuana being sold for $350-$400 an ounce in the Mason school district near Cincinnati. An undercover agent began making buys at Mason High School, where the teenager was a student, and uncovered a dealing operation headed by the arrested student.
Fornshell told ABC News: "The undercover officer uncovered six students or former students working for that individual and trafficking drugs in two school districts. The group supplied an overwhelming amount of marijuana in the Mason and King school districts."
The student helped lead cops to uncover a major grow operation, run by locals out of warehouses and other buildings in three nearby towns. Six other adult individuals were ultimately arrested for their role in growing and distributing the drug. Authorities seized 600 plants from the three grow houses, with an estimated street value of $3 million.
All of the individuals have been indicted by a grand jury, but have yet to be arraigned or enter pleas.
