`DREAM HOME' HID HUGE DRUG OPERATION

HUMBOLDT COUNTY, CALIFORNIA -- Police have arrested three people and seized
12,448 marijuana plants from an operation hidden behind a two-story facade
made to look like a dream home in the country.

Authorities described last week's raid as the state's biggest bust of an
indoor marijuana-growing operation. Local and federal drug agents uncovered
an indoor dope-growing "factory" that they estimated was capable of
producing $500,000 worth of processed marijuana a month.

The marijuana was found growing in four buildings on a heavily wooded site
in rural Humboldt County, about 225 miles north of San Francisco.
