Las Vegas, NV (KTNV) -- One person was arrested in a pot bust in the northwest part of the Valley on Thursday morning.
Police were called to the scene of a suspicious situation on the 9000 block of Mossy Hollow Avenue at about 9:20 a.m.
When officers entered the home to investigate, they found a marijuana grow operation inside.
109 marijuana plants with an estimated street value of $381,000 were taken from the home, along with equipment and cash.
The homeowner, 32-year-old Jared Devin Ries, was arrested and faces drug-related charges.
Ries was arrested back in 2009 for possession of marijuana.
Police say this is the 102nd grow house investigated in Las Vegas this year.
