An eviction in Fordham on Monday led to the discovery of over two dozen cannabis plants, the New York City Sheriff's Office says.

The discovery began when a Marshal was executing an eviction Monday afternoon inside an apartment at 2701 Marion Ave. During the incident, police contacted the sheriff's office for assistance and a team was dispatched.

Upon their arrival, 30 plants were seen in an apartment grow house. The sheriff's office says it conferred with Con Edison, FDNY and the Department of Buildings for any additional violations.

News 12 has reached out to the Department of Buildings and is waiting to hear back.
