WR man accused of growing dope

A Warner Robins man is accused of growing several marijuana plants inside his home.

John Paul Celentano II, 53, was arrested earlier this week at his Rusty Road home in Warner Robins and charged with manufacturing marijuana, according to a Houston County sheriff’s news release.

Narcotics investigators found eight plants in all, along with potting soil, pots and artificial lights.

Most of the plants were 4 feet tall, the release said. The street value of the plants was estimated at $1,000 each. Some of the plants had been harvested, the release said.
