PREBLE COUNTY, Ohio (WDTN) - Preble County deputies discovered an indoor marijuana grow operation Tuesday.

The Sheriff’s Office reports deputies were trying to contact a person at a home in the 6200 block of Sonora Road, north of Lewisburg, when they saw what they believed to be marijuana plants in the residence.

They obtained a search warrant and returned to the home with agents from the Ohio Attorney General’s Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation team.

Inside the home, officers discovered marijuana plants, lighting, timers, and exhaust system and processed marijuana.

Deputies also seized pills and several firearms from the home.

No arrests have been made as the investigation is still underway.
