This dude thought his pot grow-tent was nestled safely in the woods.
Turns out he picked a very safe spot -- near a private K-9 training facility.
A K-9 team in training ended up with a real find last Wednesday afternoon when a police dog sniffed out 79 pot plants growing in a field in New Smyrna Beach, according to a news release from the Volusia County Sheriff's Office.
While practicing a track through some woods, a K-9 team from Kentucky stumbled onto a tent. The dog’s behavior started to change as it pulled its handler off track and led him to the tent.
The obvious scent of marijuana lingered in the air near the tent.
That's when the handler contacted the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office deputies, whofound 79 pot plants and about a pound of cultivated marijuana, the release stated.
The investigation led agents to a nearby trailer and eventually, to a suspect, Anthony Parrish, 38. Agents also found a small amount of pot inside Parrish’s trailer, deputies said.
Parrish was charged with two felonies offenses -- manufacture of marijuana and possession of marijuana -- and booked into the Volusia County Branch Jail in Daytona Beach on $3,000 bond.
