Summary

On August 21, 2025 the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board, working with the Tacoma Police Department's Special Investigations Unit, served a search warrant on what the LCB called an illicit, unlicensed cannabis operation at the Red Barn Trading Post on State Route 507 South in Roy. The LCB said a previous complaint was re-opened after it saw cannabis being sold again without a license, that an earlier warrant was served there in 2022, and that undercover officers bought illicit cannabis products. About 1,876 items were seized and two people were arrested by Tacoma police.
