Wendell Brandenburg, the agent in charge for the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drug Control, says the seizure was made Friday afternoon after OBN agents had received tips about the marijuana plants.

Brandenburg says that it is estimated that one marijuana plant can produce one to two pounds of processed marijuana, which sells for about $800 a pound.

As of Monday, no arrest had been made and no charges had been filed in the case.

Brandenburg says the OBN is seeking an arrest warrant for the property's owner.
