On yesterdays date during the evening tour of duty, Fifth District`s burglary reduction unit was working in PSA 501 patrolling the unit block of Adams Street NW. While in the alley Sgt Purnell and the team noticed an open back door that seemed unattended. They responded to investigate the matter, as they approached the a male subject approached the door and began acting evasive. Further investigation revealed a massive marijuana farm being cultivated in the basement of the location, also recovered were three firearms and many other distribution materials.

All parties involved have been charged with several narcotic violations !!

Does anyone know which house this is? I'd like to know if the house where I suspect the farm is has implicated the 2 known drug dealers I've been reporting on for over two years.

Thanks

I'm not sure why, but this makes me want to laugh.

I saw this on my way home through the alley. I live on Bryant Street and share the alley with Adam Street..

What insanity... I'm not so much concerned about the marijuana as I am the guns!!! I guess one follows the other. I'm not to knowledgeable about the drug world.. What a mess!!!

Well a job well done by MPD. They must have been good drug dealers, cause no one I know on that alley even knew. Wonder which house it was?
