Where there’s smoke, there’s marijuana.
At least in a recent case, where members of the Salmon Arm RCMP arrived at a residence with a search warrant only to find the residents tending to a marijuana-fueld bonfire outdoors.
The incident took place Tuesday, Feb. 15 at 247 Kault Hill Road.
As a result of the blaze, the fire department was called in.
Police seized 75 plants and arrested a 25-year-old man for production of marijuana. He was held in custody, but has since been released pending a court date on March 29.
The owner of the property across the street is also being investigated for marijuana growing.
