Lexington Police Spot Marijuana Patch From The Air

Lexington Police made an interesting find late Tuesday afternoon from the air that led officers to the ground.

The department’s helicopter was flying over north Lexington when the pilot spotted what appeared to be a marijuana patch growing in a field off Dawson Springs Way near Newtown Pike.

Officers on the ground confirmed the aerial sighting and chopped the pot plants down.

No arrests were made.

The investigation continued.
