Man Wai Vinton
By TBO.com
Hillsborough County deputies have confiscated about 250 marijuana plants at a house in Apollo Beach.
The plants were found in the attic and two upper rooms of a large house in the 700 block of Kingston Court around 3 a.m.
According to deputies the plants were all in pots and not by using hydroponics technique.
Deputies say they were alerted to the location of the pot-growing house through the arrest of a man called Man-Wai Vinton last week. Vinton is already in jail and is charged with possession of cannabis with intent to sell and several other drug charges.
A woman called Gayle Copp, living at the home, was taken into custody. She will be taken to Orient Road jail. The investigation continues.

250 plants were confiscated.
