California's Department of Cannabis Control is processing evidence from a massive crackdown on illegal cannabis operations in Contra Costa County.
Investigators say they seized more than 17,000 illegal cannabis plants worth some $15 million. They seized seven firearms during the June 20 raid.
Many of the operations were stealing electricity and water. So far, the task force has made no arrests, but several locations were red-tagged for safety and code violations.
