THOUSAND OAKS : Police Say Probation Search Yields Drugs
A 31-year-old Thousand Oaks man was released from jail on $10,000 bail after police said they found more than $22,000 worth of marijuana and other narcotics at his residence.
Police said they found six pounds of marijuana, 39 marijuana plants and about 100 pills identified as amphetamine tablets Wednesday while conducting a probation search of Robert Blackburn’s home at 126 Prentiss St.
Blackburn was booked into Ventura County Jail on suspicion of possession for sale of marijuana and amphetamines.
A Thousand Oaks police detective who asked not to be identified said police are looking for additional suspects in the case.
“There are other people connected,” the detective said. “The investigation is ongoing.”
