Helicopter Covering Cycling Race Exposes Illegal Rooftop Grow

During helicopter coverage of Spain’s La Vuelta bicycling race a rooftop marijuana grow with 40 plants was accidently spotted. Local authorities were notified of the largescale grow operation.

Local authorities haven’t arrested anyone yet, but only because they can’t figure out who the plants belong to according to Fox News. The rooftop is open access to everyone in the building and not assigned to a specific tenant.

In Spain, residents can grow marijuana for personal but can’t buy or sell it.
