According to investigators, deputies were called to the 3600 block of East Telegraph Road on Friday for a report of an assault with a deadly weapon.
When they got there, the reported victim, 48-year-old Wayne Cain, said his business partner, 48-year-old Raymond Grams, intentionally knocked him down with his car. Cain suffered minor injuries.
During the investigation, authorities discovered that Cain and Grams had a large marijuana growing operation at the residence. Several rooms of the rented property contained marijuana plants, high intensity lighting on automated tracks, multiple air conditioning units, exhaust fans with carbon filters to reduce odors, and propane fueled carbon dioxide generators.
In all, 541 marijuana plants were seized. Cain was arrested for cultivation of marijuana. Grams was booked for assault with a deadly weapon as well as cultivation of marijuana.
