TOWN OF LOCKPORT: 911 calls lead to marijuana growing bust

Staff Reports
Niagara Gazette

A 51-year-old Old Beattie Road woman who repeatedly called 911 Sunday afternoon was eventually arrested after Niagara County Sheriff’s deputies found marijuana growing in her home.

Deputies said Michele Anastasi of 6304 Old Beattie Road began calling 911 Sunday afternoon to report bulldozers behind her house making noise and kicking up dirt. When they arrived, deputies said she was intoxicated and the bulldozers were not on her property.

A short time after deputies left, Anastasi began calling 911 again, requesting a report be filled out. Deputies returned to the home, due to the high number of 911 calls. Anastasi admitted to calling four or five times.

While at the home this time, deputies spotted a marijuana plant growing under a fluorescent light.

When deputies brought the plants outside, they said Anastasi told them, “Thank you. I needed to get help. I have a problem.” She was charged with second-degree harassment, second-degree obstructing governmental administration, unlawful possession of marijuana and unlawfully growing cannabis.
