Illegal Pot Grow Found Inside Old Calaveras County Fire Station

VALLEY SPRINGS (CBS13) — An illegal marijuana grow was busted in Calaveras County inside what used to be a fire station.

Deputies served a search warrant earlier this month for the building on Main Street in Valley Springs, according to the Calaveras County Sheriff's Office.

This is what they found: 256 marijuana plants and more than 27 pounds of processed pot worth $355,000.

The fire station had been converted into a home.

One person — Ren Qi QUi, 48, of Jenny Lind — was cited.
