LANDLORD'S CROSS-COUNTRY SURPRISE: HIS HOUSE IN A POT BUST

The owner of an Evergreen Shores home where detectives found more than $450,000 worth of marijuana on Christmas Day lives in Worcester, Mass., and was renting the house to a man named Hung, the owner said Thursday. 

"Oh, wow," said Bao Vo, who owns the home on 77th Court Southwest in the Black Lake area, when told that detectives found 300 pot plants at the home.  Vo, who did not speak English fluently, passed the phone to his daughter, June. 

She said that her father, who is Vietnamese, rented the home to another Vietnamese man.  June said her father is a friend of the man, then corrected herself and said they were not friends.  June added that she was not sure who else was living at the home.
