The FBI raided multiple locations in the San Fernando Valley today, uncovering pot growing warehouses, according to FBI spokesperson Laura Eimiller.
"Multiple search warrants were executed," Eimiller said. "It involved multiple agencies including the FBI, DEA, LAPD and the ATF and ICE."
No arrests were made. The operation was part of an ongoing criminal investigation into "illicit marijuana cultivation".
The raids happened in six locations; two in North Hollywood, one in North Hills, Sherman Oaks, Canoga Park and Palmdale. Authorities targeted warehouses and residences.
"Thousands of plants were recovered," said Eimiller. But, she said, it's not known if the locations are connected.
The largest number of pot plants were taken from a warehouse in the 16700 block of Schoenborn Street according to City News Service. FBI agents were seen hauling plastic bags of contraband out of the building.
While California laws recognize the legal use of marijuana as medicine, federal law does not provide for any legal use of the plant.
