Deputies seize 18 marijuana plants Tuesday

Whitley County Sheriff’s Deputy Joe Prewitt and Sgt. Jeff Anderson seized 18 marijuana plants at a location off Mustang Lane about 2 p.m. Tuesday while investigating an anonymous tip.

No arrests have been made yet, but police do have a suspect in the case.

The tallest of the plants was about six-feet tall, and deputies say many plants were close to that height.

When fully mature, the plants each have a street value of over $2,000.
