Law enforcement seized more than 1,285 pounds of marijuana product and plants Friday from three Loveland warehouses.

According to a news release from the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office, the black market value of the products prepared to be sold in Colorado as well as other states totaled about $1 million.

Authorities executed the search warrants on the warehouse buildings in the 1500 block of Taurus Court and contacted five people, but they were all released pending charges, the release stated.

The bust was led by the Northern Colorado Drug Task Force in conjunction with United States Drug Enforcement Administration Cheyenne Wyoming Resident Office, the Fort Collins Drug Enforcement Administration Post of Duty, and federal law enforcement from the Cheyenne Police Department and the Laramie County Sheriff’s Office, with assistance from the Colorado Highway Patrol, Loveland Police Department SWAT team, Loveland Fire Rescue Authority, and Thompson Valley Emergency Medical Services.
