County investigators served a search warrant around 7 a.m. on a Monday morning at a five-acre property on Honeyhill Road in Oak Hills.[1] Detectives had been called to the property after neighbours reported a strong smell coming from a newly built warehouse.[2]

Inside a newly built metal structure they found more than 3,000 trash bags of processed marijuana, stacked 12 feet high from one end of the building to the other, each bag weighing 30 to 50 pounds.[1] The 4,800-square-foot building was stuffed end to end with the bags.[2]

The haul totalled more than 90,000 pounds (about 40.8 tonnes), with a street value of more than $100 million.[1][2] It took investigators two days and 51 truckloads to remove it.[1][2]

No arrests were made and the investigation remained open, with the owner of the stash a mystery; one detective admitted officers were stumped by the find.[1][2]
