ARGUMENT LEADS TO POT BUST IN EDGEWATER

An argument between a man and woman led Edgewater police to a major
marijuana bust Sunday morning, after [name redacted] invited a police
officer inside his home.

Once inside, officers noticed the sweet, pungent odor of green
marijuana "that permeated the entire residence" after being called to
the home in the 2000 block of Ames Street at about 11:15 a.m.,
according to a press release from the Edgewater Police Department.

Police found a "grow operation," which cultivates marijuana, in the
home's basement.

[name redacted], 30, told officers he had a medical marijuana license, but
couldn't provide it, according to the police.

He faces charges of cultivation of marijuana and possession with the
intent to distribute marijuana. The West Metro Drug Task Force was
called to confiscate the marijuana, but the amount and its street
value were not available Sunday.
