Police Bust Forestville Home Growing 'Closet Full of Pot'

The closet was made into a greenhouse for the plant.

A Forestville man was arrested earlier this week after police discovered he was growing a closet full of pot in his apartment in the 3200 block of Walters Lane.

According to a Prince George's County Police post on Facebook, the closet had a full ventilation system, lighting and water flowing through the plants. If sold, the plants would have a street value of $5,000, police said.
