CANTON —
A city man got probation Wednesday for growing marijuana.

Stark County Common Pleas Judge John G. Haas placed Christopher J. Pelfrey, 26, of 2419 Coventry Blvd. NE, on probation for three years.

Failure to follow the rules of probation could lead to a four years in prison, said Assistant Stark County Prosecutor Chryssa Hartnett.

Authorities found 30 marijuana plants and equipment in Pelfrey’s home during a raid in March, according to court papers.

He pleaded guilty in June to illegal cultivation of marijuana.
