County marijuana growing sites raided

The state Police and Cayuga County Sheriff's Department joined forces Monday to find marijuana growing sites.

Authorities confiscated 141 marijuana plants from various places around the Cayuga County.

The joint team used a New York State Police helicopter to fly over 20 suspected areas for growing the illegal plant. According to a press release, marijuana plants were found in several of the suspected locations.

When the authorities located the plants from the helicopter, officers on the ground were sent to the sites to take the plants.

They are continuing to investigate the owners of the plants. At that point, the owners will face charges regarding the growing and possession of marijuana.
