At 11:55 a.m. Friday, Hawaii Police Department Vice Section officers served a search warrant at a home on the 15-1900 block of 31st Avenue. During the warrant’s execution, police reportedly located 674 marijuana plants ranging in height from 6 inches to 4 feet, 80 clones, and 6.94 pounds of dried marijuana.
