KAPOWSIN, Wash. (AP) - Sheriff's officers have raided an east Pierce County home they say was the site of a cockfighting and drug operation.
Pierce County sheriff's spokesman Ed Troyer says the Friday raid on the home near Kapowsin found 51 roosters in cages and another 20 who were running free. He says investigators also found a marijuana grow operation, automatic weapons, and a trailer used to manufacture drugs, including methamphetamine.
One man was booked into the county jail, and Troyer says others are being sought.
