This morning around 1:30 a.m., Clinton Police officers were dispatched to the residence of 109 Cynthia Street in reference to a domestic disturbance.
When officers arrived on scene, they said they were met with the strong odor of raw marijuana. A search warrant was secured and evidence discovered indicated that the husband and wife have been growing marijuana in the presence of their two children, ages five and six.
Approximately one pound of marijuana and two grow tents were seized from the property, along with two firearms and various items of drug paraphernalia.
29 year-old Christopher Rollins, of Shreveport, was taken into custody on charges related to manufacturing a controlled substance, being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm and child endangerment. Similar charges are pending on the wife, 25 year-old Tranisha Thomas, of Bossier City. Ruffins and Thomas have been residents of Clinton for about one year.
