Mingo Marijuana Bust



A man is now in jail after troopers say they found about 100 marijuana plants growing in a barn at his home.

Johnsie Gooslin, 36, has been charged with cultivation of marijuana.

After receiving a tip, troopers went to Gooslin's house at Rutherford Hollow in North Matewan, late Friday night.

Troopers were given consent to search, and found the plants in the barn.

Gooslin is now in the Southwestern Regional Jail awaiting arraignment.
