YPSILANTI, MI — The Drug Enforcement Agency, aided by several local law enforcement agencies, raided a medical marijuana dispensary in Ypsilanti, Michigan early Tuesday.
Special Agent Rich Isaacson from the DEA’s Detroit division confirmed the raid on The Shop, which began around 10:30 am, but would not comment on the details of the search warrant or on the investigation, which Isaacson says is ongoing.
Police confiscated inventory from the dispensary including several bags of medical marijuana, and seized two vehicles from the property.
The Ypsilanti Police initially denied knowledge of the raid, but later in the day Ypsilanti Police Sgt. Yuchasz confirmed that “Ypsilanti police assisted the DEA in an investigation this morning.”
Medical marijuana has been allowed in Michigan since 2008.
In the 2012 election, voters in Ypsilanti passed a measure making marijuana law enforcement the lowest priority for city police.
