Police: Man Grew Marijuana Plants In Yard
KEY WEST, Fla. -- Police on Tuesday arrested a man who they said was growing marijuana plants in plain sight in his backyard.
Thomas Merrick is charged with possession of marijuana with intent to distribute within 1,000 feet of a church, possession of more than 20 grams of marijuana and cultivating marijuana.
According to Key West police, a neighbor complained that Merrick, 67, was growing marijuana outside of his house on Washington Street. Without entering the property, police said, Officer Brian Leahy could see the marijuana plants growing in the yard.
Police said that when officers asked Merrick, who was in his yard, if he was growing any illegal plants, he asked if they had a warrant, but later told them not to bother when they said they would return with one.
"There's no need for that," Merrick allegedly told officers. "I have marijuana plants in the yard. There are only a few plants and I use them for personal use only."
Police said 24 marijuana plants were seized from the yard. In addition, more than 100 grams of bagged marijuana was seized from Merrick's house with his consent, police said.
