King County Sheriff’s Office detectives seized nearly $10 million of illegal marijuana when it served search warrants on 18 residences and two storage units last week in King and Pierce counties.<\/p>\n

A total of 7,634 marijuana plants valued at about $7.6 million and 783 pounds of processed marijuana valued at about $2.3 million were recovered, according to a news release Wednesday from the Sheriff’s Office.<\/p>\n

The searches were done over two days last week at locations in unincorporated King County, Kent, Renton, Auburn, Federal Way, Pacific, Lakewood and Seattle.<\/p>\n

Detectives arrested 10 people for investigation of drug related charges. Detectives seized 10 homes, four vehicles, a 32-foot RV and more than $200,000 in cash all related to illegal marijuana grows and sales. 10 adults were booked into King County Jail for drug related charges.<\/p>\n

All of the search warrants served in this operation were at illegal grow locations. The marijuana itself is suspected of being sent to the East Coast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
