Members of the Vernon/North Okanagan detachment dismantled a grow operation at a residence in the 5600 block of Highway 6 Tuesday.

Several members executed a search warrant on the home this morning and located 393 marijuana plants in various stages of growth.

RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk says one male and three female adults were arrested in the residence when police arrived.

“This residence has been posted under the Coldstream Drug By-law because of the use of the residence for growing marijuana,” says Molendyk.

He says police are still investigating this file determining the involvement of all parties that were arrested.

Charges are expected to be laid at a later date.
