DRUGS: Police say marijuana found growing in Gasport home
GASPORT — Charges are pending against two men after members of the Niagara County Drug Task Force reportedly found marijuana plants and guns in a basement on Highland Drive. The sheriff’s department dispatch received a 911 call about 2:27 a.m. from a 35-year-old Main Street woman who was at the Highland Drive home and said she had possibly been drugged. When deputies arrived, they reportedly saw drug paraphernalia in plain view in the kitchen and living room, including marijuana, a bong and marijuana cigarettes.
The woman reportedly said she did not know how she had gotten to the house, and she was not aware of what day or time it was. The woman said she believed the 51-year-old man who lives there had given her psychedelic mushrooms. She told deputies she thought she heard her father’s voice coming from the basement and that the heating vents in the living room area were glowing, the report said. Tri-Town Ambulance responded to the scene and transported the woman to Lockport Memorial Hospital for evaluation.
Deputies interviewed a 27-year-old resident, who said the 51-year-old had left for an unknown destination shortly after the woman called 911. Deputies noticed the basement and bedroom doors were both locked, and asked the man if anyone else was in the building or if were any illegal drugs in the house. The man said he did not know what was in the basement, the report said. Members of the Niagara County Drug Task Force responded and secured a search warrant for the residence. In the basement, task force members reportedly found numerous marijuana plants, along with equipment used to grow marijuana and several long guns.The items were confiscated and the investigation is continuing. Drug Task Force Chief Mark Driess said Thursday that charges are pending against both men who live in the home.
