GRAND RAPIDS, MI — Thirty-seven people have been indicted as part of an alleged multi-county marijuana grow operation.

In October, 27 people were arrested as part of the alleged grow operation, but the government dropped charges to continue the investigation that now has resulted in charges against 10 additional suspects.
