MERCED, Calif. (KFSN) -- Merced police say they shut down a drug house near a middle school. Officers arrested Lindsey Manzanedo, 29, on several drug-related charges after serving a search warrant.

Authorities say they found three separate marijuana grows, a mushroom grow, and honey oil conversion equipment, plus a variety of other drugs, including heroin and hundreds of prescription pain killers. They also seized cash, several flat-screen TVs and a 2002 Jaguar.

The items were all located on Pyramid Avenue near Bodie Street. That's about a block away from Weaver Middle School.

Authorities served the warrants after getting complaints of possible drug activity in the area.
