LOS ANGELES - Los Angeles police say all they needed to find marijuana growing in a Van Nuys warehouse was a sense of smell.
Authorities say someone reported an unusual odour at the warehouse on Roscoe Place on Monday. Police and a Fire Department hazardous materials team were called and found more than 200 marijuana plants inside.
Detective Robert Holcomb says the odour of pot coming through a window was so strong that arriving officers recognized it immediately.
The plants were being grown hydroponically, without soil.
Holcomb says the pot had a street value of about $100,000. Six weapons also were seized.
