Federal officials were mum today about what led them to raid two marijuana dispensaries, one in West Hollywood and another in Westwood, whose staff claimed they were operating within the bounds of California’s medical cannabis laws.

The raids by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration happened Thursday at two dispensaries operated by the same company, known as The Farmacy, said Vijay Rathie, special agent and public information officer for the DEA’s Los Angeles field division.

He said no details were immediately available about why the dispensaries were targeted.

The search warrant that authorized the raids were under seal, and so no details about the nature and scope of the investigation were available, said Thom Mrozek, public affairs officer for the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Central District of California.

Staffers at the dispensaries told reporters that the shops were compliant with state laws but agents nonetheless seized money, marijuana and computers.

No arrests were made, the staffers said.
