Ledyard ― Police said they seized evidence of an illegal marijuana cultivation operation at a Shewville Road home on Wednesday and arrested the resident there.
Clem Ramsey, 42, of 669 Shewville Road is charged with operating a drug factory and cultivation of marijuana. Ledyard police said in a statement that they served two search warrants at Ramsey’s home with the assistance of the Connecticut State Police Statewide Narcotics Task Force and the Southeastern Connecticut Special Response Team.
Police said the marijuana cultivation was an outdoor operation. Indoor marijuana cultivation is legal in Connecticut but under a strict set of guidelines that include a limit on the number of plants and restrictions on where they can be grown. Police provided no other details about the arrest.
Ramsey was held on $50,000 bond and expected to appear Thursday in New London Superior Court.
