Seven people were arrested after police seized 1,726 hydroponically grown
marijuana plants worth $1.1 million during raids on five Ajax and Pickering
homes.
Durham Regional Police, Port Hope Police and several new recruits armed with
search warrants also seized about $228,000 worth of sophisticated growing
equipment during the raids on Monday.
The busts bring the number of alleged illegal Durham "home-grow" operations
shut down to 63 this year.
Police are searching for the occupants of a Windebanks Dr. house in Ajax,
where they seized 315 plants and $58,000 worth of equipment.
Torontonians Thi Nga Nguyen, 33, of Sumach St.; Thien Thai Tran, 46, of
Aurora Court; Duc Can Le, 25, of Brock Ave.; Thu Dung Le, 29, of Moeller
Court; Chin Huu Le, 30 of Ojibway Trail, Mississauga; and Manh Hied Nguyen,
38, of Lancaster Dr., Oakville, are charged with offences related to
marijuana growing.
