College Coach Suspected of Growing Pot

HENDERSON, Nev. (AP) - Authorities arrested an assistant
baseball coach with the College of Southern Nevada on suspicion of
growing nearly 200 marijuana plants.

KLAS-TV reports that police found 186 plants in a Henderson home Thursday evening. The plants were valued at more than $600,000.

Police arrested 29-year-old Ezekiel Parraz on suspicion of the
crime.

Authorities say neighbors reported an overwhelming marijuana
smell coming from the home and police obtained a search warrant
after conducting surveillance.
