The Washington County Sheriff's Office has confirmed the news—first reported by WW—that narcotics officers on Wednesday raided a medical-marijuana club in Aloha.
A press release (PDF) from the sheriff's office calls the raid the first of its kind in Oregon. Dozens of such establishments have opened statewide despite the defeat of a 2010 ballot measure that would have regulated dispensaries. No arrests have been made.
