From the MPD listserv:
Police in the Fifth District uncovered a “massive marijuana farm” inside a Bloomingdale basement on Monday evening, according to a report from the District commander. In an email to the police listserv, Commander Lamar D. Greene reported that an evening burglary reduction unit was conducting their evening patrol when they noticed a back door on the unit block of Adams Street NW open and unattended. When the officers went to check it out, a man appeared and started acting jittery; when the officers investigated further, they found a huge cultivation, distribution materials and three firearms. Several narcotics charges have been leveled against the individuals residing in the residence.
