THORNTON - Wardens with the California Department of Fish and Game spent the weekend cleaning up a major illegal marijuana field in a wildlife refuge along the Sacramento/San Joaquin county line.

The pot bust netted thousands of mature plants, tons of garbage and one arrest.

Fifteen game wardens from throughout the region spent 12 hours Sunday cutting down 2,000 marijuana plants in the Cosumnes River Preserve near New Hope Road and Bear Slough, roughly three miles northeast of Thornton and just inside Sacramento County.
