A police raid on a North Okanagan house has turned up a two-level confined bunker where more than 4,600 pot plants were being grown. "In a coordinated effort early this morning, officers from the North Okanagan Detachment, Air Services Division and the Emergency Response Team from the Lower Main Land trained to search in confined spaces attended a residence in the 1800 block of Hwy #6 in Cherryville area," says RCMP spokesman Gord Molendyk. RCMP say the operation was powered half by hydro from the grid, and the other half by a generator. A 33-year-old Kelowna man arrested there is expected to face drug production and trafficking charges. Police say as part of the investigation, officers are looking into the origin of the generator. RCMP are working at dismantling the operation, where 4,608 plants in various stages of growth were seized.----------
