KPD Finds 80 lbs. Marijuana in Rental Home

Knoxville Police Department finds 80 pounds of marijuana in a Knoxville home.

WVLT reports that Investigators executed a search warrant on Piney Grove Church Road on Jan. 27 in a rental unit leased to a woman identified as 21-year-old Shyne Robinson. The property owner had to call Robinson because she had changed the locks, leaving the owner without access to the unit.

Once Robinson arrived and gave the owner a key, officers searched the home and reportedly found around 80 pounds of marijuana packed in vacuum bags in a laundry room and closet, along with two loaded guns in the kitchen. Robinson was charged with possession and having a firearm with the intent to go armed.
