The home was filled with marijuana and cultivation equipment

It looks harmless but according to the Albany-Dougherty Drug Unit, the small yellow house at 1506 West Lincoln Avenue was producing some very green product.

Officers say it was a grow house for marijuana.

Albany police had responded to a call about an attempted burglary at 1506 West Lincoln.

Upon arrival, they noticed that something was not quite right.

1506 West Lincoln looks like a normal, everyday residence. But apparently, no one was actually living there. About the only things drug officers found inside were a sofa, marijuana, and equipment to grow more marijuana.
