BUTLER COUNTY, OH (FOX19) - Undercover drug agents in Ohio have made what they are describing as one of the biggest pot busts in the county's history.

 

Agents raided a home and found 1,050 marijuana plants and an elaborate growing operation inside. The street value of the drugs is estimated at well over $1 million.

 

Two brothers were taken into custody. Phuc Ky Luong, 50, and A Bay Luong, 46, are both facing felony cultivation of marijuana charges. They were found hiding in an attic and taken to the Butler County Jail, where they are both being held on a $1 million

 

They will be in court again on Nov. 3.

 

Around 8:40 Wednesday night, a neighbor called the fire department after smelling a "strong chemical odor" in the area. Upon arrival, a firefighter looked through a basement window and spotted the pot.

 

Butler County Sheriff's deputies and undercover agents from the Sheriff's Regional Narcotics (BURN) taskforce responded to the scene to discover the elaborate growing operation. Some of the plants were already harvested and were hanging in separate rooms to dry.
