Five men were arrested and an estimated over $3 million worth of marijuana was seized at an illegal growing operation in Ramona, authorities reported Friday.

A search warrant was issued at the property in the 1800 block of Orange Avenue at about 7 a.m. Thursday, said San Diego County Sheriff's Sgt. Mark Knierim. During the search detectives found and seized 4,409 live marijuana plants worth an estimated $3.3 million, Knierim said. Five men were arrested and are expected to face felony charges.
