Police find pot farm at Girl Scout camp
Police in Indiana have found 5,000 marijuana plants growing on land that is partly used for a Girl Scout camp. Where they tipped off by the large number of empty Thin Mints boxes laying around?
Police found the hidden marijuana farm with plants in various stages of cultivation in a wooded swampy area of Kosciusko County, according to documents filed Monday in U.S. District Court in South Bend. Some of the plants were growing on land belonging to a local resident, while the bulk — about 5,000 plants — were growing on camp land. State troopers in an airplane spotted the plots.
Mario Comacho, 44, Mariano Gonzales, 38, and a juvenile were arrested last week after police found the farm. Comacho and Gonzales, both of Goshen, appeared for an initial hearing Monday in federal court on charges of possession of more than 1,000 marijuana plants with the intent to distribute. Neither man had an attorney, according to court documents.
