Hundreds of roosters and hundreds of pounds of marijuana were seized at an Antelope Valley home Thursday, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said.
A multi-agency effort launched to serve a warrant at the unincorporated Juniper Hills property after a receiving a report of an illegal “fighting rooster.”
About 228 roosters intended for cockfighting were seized by LA County animal care and control and SPCALA.
Some 500-600 pounds of marijuana with an estimated street value of $500,000, along with a .22 caliber rifle, were also seized.
A man was arrested and taken to the Palmdale Sheriff’s Station, where he was booked, authorities said.
