Police are looking for a man who allegedly ran from a million-dollar marijuana grow-op on Warden Avenue.
The suspect allegedly fled after a Toronto Hydro employee visited the home on June 16. The employee noticed power lines were down at the house, and sent an emergency service truck to the area.
Crews found a hydro by-pass at the home and called police.
Investigators allegedly found 1,460 healthy plants and 2.5 kg of packaged marijuana, with a total street value of $1,500,000.
Police expect to make an arrest soon.
