Law enforcement in Lincoln County discovered another illegal marijuana grow operation.
The Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office and Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality conducted the raid at a home in the 103000 block of S 3360 Rd., between Meeker and Harrah Tuesday morning.
The owners of the operation were not found, but four people from China, possibly in the country illegally, were working at the operation at the time of the raid.
Approximately 2,200 marijuana plants were seized from the property, equaling around $3 million.
The illegal grow operation is linked to a recent bust in Bethel Acres on June 7.
Cheap land, taxes, and fees along with a lack of enforcement is what Lincoln County District Attorney Allan Grubb said is making Oklahoma a hot bed for this type of crime.
