At least one person was arrested, and more than 50 pounds of illicit drugs were seized when police served a search warrant at an illegal marijuana dispensary in San Bernardino County, authorities announced Tuesday.
The April 2 raid targeted an unlicensed dispensary located in the area of Highland and Arrowhead avenues in San Bernardino.
In a video of the raid posted to social media by the San Bernardino Police Department, officers can be seen entering the facility with guns drawn. Just moments later, a person in handcuffs was seen sitting in a chair as the search warrant was executed.

No information was provided on the identity of the person arrested. It’s unknown whether they were just an employee of the illegal business or the owner of the shop.
It is also unclear how long the unlicensed dispensary had been in operation.
