A Palmetto father has been arrested on a charge of growing marijuana after his daughter reported his operation to a school resource officer, according to a Manatee County Sheriffs Office report.
The girl told a Palmetto Police officer her father was growing pot in their home in the 6100 block of 63rd Avenue East.
Based on the tip, deputies went to the home of Patrick C. Allerton, 63, and found eight marijuana plants and seven grams of pot in a dresser. Deputies also found more than $3,600 cash in the dresser along with other drug paraphernalia, the sheriffs report said.
Deputies arrested Allerton on charges of cultivation of marijuana and possession of marijuana. He was being held in the Manatee County jail Thursday on $10,500 bond.
Sheriffs child protection officials placed Allertons daughter in the custody of a family friend, the sheriffs report said.
