LOS ANGELES -- Sheriff's narcotics officers and detectives have found 985 marijuana plants, with an estimated street value of $5.9 million, growing inside a house in the 700 block of Farben Drive in Diamond Bar.


The discovery marks the third marijuana seizure within five weeks in Diamond Bar.

Earlier last month, sheriff's narcotics officers raided another home in Diamond Bar and confiscated an estimated $12.5 million worth of marijuana.

At least 10 raids have been conducted recently by the federal Drug Enforcement Administration in Northern California at homes in upscale suburbs like Diamond Bar, authorities said.

No arrests were made in the most recent seizure, according to Deputy Luis Castro.
