HERMANTOWN- St. Louis County sheriff's deputies found two young children living among nearly 400 marijuana plants and evidence of meth use during a raid on a home in Hermantown.

Those deputies found several growing rooms with marijuana plants Tuesday night. Investigators estimated the street value of the processed marijuana at more than $100,000.

Two men were arrested at the home during the raid. Charges are pending while the case remains under investigation.

A 4-year-old boy and a 1-year-old girl also were found in the home alongside the pot plants. Police say they were released to the custody of relatives.
