Police find over 200 marijuana plants, three arrested in Burbank home

Authorities seized more than 200 marijuana plants and arrested three people while serving a search warrant at a suspected grow house in Burbank where three young children were present, police said.

Narcotics detectives received information that led them to believe marijuana was being cultivated in a single-family home on the 1900 block of Rose Street, after which they obtained a search warrant, said Burbank Police Sgt. Adam Cornils.

While executing the search warrant Tuesday afternoon, authorities discovered “a large amount” of marijuana spread out over the kitchen table within reach of three small children, including two 1-year-olds and a 3-year-old, Cornils said.

One of the bedrooms had been converted into a marijuana grow-and-drying room, while more than 200 marijuana plants were growing in the backyard and garage, Cornils said.

Both residents, identified by police as Tishauna, 27, and Ryan Royten, 35, were arrested on suspicion of child endangerment and marijuana cultivation. A friend who was also in the home, identified as Grace McClung, 27, was also arrested on suspicion of child endangerment.

The suspects were released after each posting $100,000 bail, according to Los Angeles County jail records.
